When charged particles in periodic lattices are subjected to a constant electric field, they respond by oscillating. Here we demonstrate that the magnetic analogue of these Bloch oscillations are realised in a one-dimensional ferromagnetic…

It is shown that by properly designing the spatial dependence of the nonlinearity it is possible to induce long-living Bloch oscillations of a localized wavepacket in a periodic potential. The results are supported both by analytical and…
