The valence electronic structure of magnetic centers is one of the factors that determines the characteristics of a magnet. It may refer to orbital degeneracy, as for $j_\text{eff}=1/2$ Kitaev magnets, or near-degeneracy, e.g. involving the…
We have investigated multifunctional periodic structures in which electromagnetic waves and spin waves can be confined in the same areas. Such simultaneous localization of both sorts of excitations can potentially enhance the interaction…

Since Spin Density Functional Theory was first proposed, but also recently, examples were constructed to show that a spin-potential may share its ground state with other spin-potentials. In fact, for collinear magnetic fields and systems…

The one-dimensional planar magnonic crystals are usually fabricated as a sequence of stripes intentionally or accidentally separated by non-magnetic spacers. The influence of spacers on shaping the spin wave spectra is complex and still not…

The exact Foldy-Wouthuysen Hamiltonian is derived for a pointlike spin-1 particle with a normal magnetic moment in a nonuniform magnetic field. For a uniform magnetic field, it is exactly separated into terms linear and quadratic in spin.…
Cluster magnetic multipoles are order parameters that describe the symmetry of spin arrangements in magnetic materials. High-order multipoles are particularly important in non-collinear antiferromagnets, where they determine key physical…
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of spin solitary waves (magnetic solitons) in a harmonically trapped, binary superfluid mixture. We measure the in-situ density of each pseudospin component and their relative local phase via an…
We propose a new classification of magnetic textures from the viewpoint of differential geometry. Magnetic textures are conventionally classified into collinear, coplanar, and noncoplanar magnets. These classes are typically characterized…

Magnetic order is a fundamental property of materials, governing collective behavior and enabling a broad range of functionalities. Yet magnetic structure remains difficult to determine: experiments are costly and specialized, while…
Spin-dependent quark densities, matrix elements of specific density operators in proton states of definite spin-polarization, indicate that the nucleon may harbor an infinite variety of non-spherical shapes. We show that these matrix…
Spin fluctuations have a substantial influence on the electron and lattice behaviors in magnetic materials, which, however, is difficult to be tracked properly by prevalent first-principles methods. We propose a versatile self-adaptive…
