The spin orbit coupling spin torque consists of the field-like [REF: S.G. Tan et al., arXiv:0705.3502, (2007).] and the damping-like terms [REF: H. Kurebayashi et al., Nature Nanotechnology 9, 211 (2014).] that have been widely studied for…
Spin waves can transport both energy and angular momentum over long distances as they propagate. However, due to damping, their amplitude decreases exponentially as they move away from the source, leaving little capability for manipulating…

In many magnetic materials, spin dynamics at short times are dominated by precessional motion as damping is relatively small. In the limit of no damping and no thermal noise, we show that for a large enough initial instability, an avalanche…

Spin torque from spin current applied to a nanoscale region of a ferromagnet can act as negative magnetic damping and thereby excite self-oscillations of its magnetization. In contrast, spin torque uniformly applied to the magnetization of…
