The fields of cavity quantum electrodynamics and magnetism have recently merged into \textit{`cavity spintronics'}, investigating a quasiparticle that emerges from the strong coupling between standing electromagnetic waves confined in a…

The coupling between two or more objects can generally be categorized as strong or weak. In cavity quantum electrodynamics for example, when the coupling strength is larger than the loss rate the coupling is termed strong, and otherwise it…
