Mechanically bent nickel nanowires show clear features in their room temperature magnetoresistance when a domain wall is pinned at the location of the bend. By varying the direction of an applied magnetic field, the wire can be prepared…
Spin waves in antiferromagnets are linearly or circularly polarized. Depending on the polarization, traversing spin waves alter the staggered field in a qualitatively different way. We calculate the drift velocity of a moving domain wall as…

We show that the first structures that form in the universe should spontaneously generate magnetic fields. No primordial seed field is required for this "first dynamo". Although the first dynamo starts with kinetic plasma instabilities, we…
Domain wall networks in the early universe, formed upon spontaneous breaking of a discrete symmetry, have a rich impact on cosmology. Yet, they remain somewhat unexplored. We introduce a new analytic strategy to understand better the domain…
We explore the idea of a network of domain walls to appear at the surface of a soliton star. We show that for a suitable fine tuning among the parameters of the model we can find localized fermion zero modes only on the network of domain…

Topologically protected sheet-like surfaces, called domain walls, form when the potential of a field has a discrete symmetry that is spontaneously broken. Since this condition is commonplace in field theory, it is plausible that many of…
