Magnetic domain walls function as a wave guide for low energy magnons. In this paper we develop the theory for the non-local transport of these bound magnons through a ferromagnetic insulator that are injected and detected electrically in…

There is an interesting dichotomy between a space-time metric considered as external field in a flat background and the same considered as an intrinsic part of the geometry of space-time. We shall describe and compare two other external…

A theoretical study is made of the magnetization versus applied field curves of ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic multilayers constructed according to a Fibonacci quasiperiodic sequence. The ferromagnetic films are assumed to have uniaxial…

The diffuse intensity propagating in turbid media is sensitive to the presence of any kind of object embedded in the medium, e.g. obstacles or defects. The long-ranged effects of isolated objects can be described by a stationary diffusion…

Domain walls, arising from the spontaneous breaking of a discrete symmetry, can be coupled to charge carriers. In much the same way as the Witten model for superconducting cosmic string, an investigation is made here in the case of…

This chapter presents a review of observational studies to determine the magnetic field in the Milky Way, both in the disk and in the halo, focused on recent developments and on magnetic fields in the diffuse interstellar medium. I discuss…

Dynamics of cylindrical and spherical relativistic domain walls is investigated with the help of a new method based on Taylor expansion of the scalar field in a vicinity of the core of the wall. Internal oscillatory modes for the domain…

We consider that no mean magnetic field exists during this epoch, but that there is a mean magnetic energy associated with large-scale magnetic inhomogeneities. We study the evolution of these inhomogeneities and their influence on the…

We consider the propagation of electromagnetic waves through a dilaton-Maxwell domain wall of the type introduced by Gibbons and Wells [G.W. Gibbons and C.G. Wells, Class. Quant. Grav. 11, 2499-2506 (1994)]. It is found that if such a wall…

Magnetic domain walls (DWs) are widely regarded as classical objects in physics community, even though the concepts of electron spins and spin-spin exchange interaction are quantum mechanical in nature. One intriguing question is whether…

A recent study of supersymmetric domain walls in $N=1$ supergravity theories revealed a new class of domain walls interpolating between supersymmetric vacua with different non-positive cosmological constants. We classify three classes of…

We observe shift in the zero magnetic field resonance as the handedness of resonantly interacting circularly polarized light is changed. The characteristic of the shift resembles with the Zeeman light shift that arises due to interaction of…

Materials with long-range order like ferromagnetism or ferroelectricity exhibit uniform, yet differently oriented three-dimensional regions called domains that are separated by two-dimensional topological defects termed domain…
