Superconductors can transport spin without Joule dissipation, yet their coherent coupling to short-wavelength magnons in insulating magnets remains largely unexplored. Here we demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that a conventional…

We consider a thin-film normal metal/superconductor junction in the presence of an externally applied in-plane magnetic field for several symmetries of the superconducting order parameter. For p-wave superconductors, a strongly…
