Magnetic skyrmions are localized swirls of magnetization with a non-trivial topological winding number. This winding increases their robustness to superparamagnetism and gives rise to a myriad of novel dynamical properties, making them…
Dirac particles have two intrinsic degrees-of-freedom, helicity and chirality. While helicity is conserved in time, chirality is not constant under time evolution for massive particles, yielding the phenomenon of chiral oscillations. So…

Skyrmions are nanometric spin whirls that can be stabilized in magnets lacking inversion symmetry. The properties of isolated skyrmions embedded in a ferromagnetic background have been intensively studied. We show that single skyrmions and…
We analyse the effect of the canonical quantization of the rotational mode of the O(3) $\sigma$-model which includes the Skyrme term. Numerical evidence is presented that the quantum correction to the mass of the rotationally-invariant…
Many driven binary systems can exhibit laning transitions when the two species have different mobilities, such as colloidal particles with opposite charges in electric fields. Another example is pedestrian or active matter systems, where…

Skyrmions are spiral structures observed in thin films of certain magnetic materials (10.1126/science.1120639). Of the phases allowed by the crystalline symmetries of these materials(10.1103/PhysRevB.80.054416) only the hexagonally packed…

The oscillator parameter in nuclei is refitted to reproduce the available charge radius data. As an important improvement, we include the Coulomb term evaluated within the assumption of a uniformly charged sphere, and take into account the…
