Twisted skyrmions, whose helicity angles are different from that of Bloch skyrmions and N\'eel skyrmions, have already been demonstrated in experiments recently. In this work, we first contrast the magnetic structure and origin of the…

We study the motion of magnetic skyrmions in a nanowire induced by a spin-wave current $J$ flowing out of a driving layer close to the edge of the wire. By applying micromagnetic simulation and an analysis of the effective Thiele equation,…
