Much like the world described in Abbott's “Flatland”, graphene is a two‐dimensional object.
And, as “Flatland” is “A Romance of Many Dimensions”, graphene is much more than just a …

Solitons are exceptionally stable standing waves which appear in many areas of physics.
This book introduces the basic properties of solitons using examples from macroscopic …

The study of atomically thin ferromagnetic crystals has led to the discovery of unusual
magnetic behaviour and provided insight into the magnetic properties of bulk materials …

Electrical currents flowing in ferromagnetic materials are spin-polarised as a result of the
spin-dependent band structure. When the spatial direction of the polarisation changes, in a …

There can be only one: In their Nobel Reviews, the laureates tell the story about the ever
changing, exciting scientific pathways that eventually—for example, with the aid of simple …

State-of-the-art studies of dielectric magnonics and magnon spintronics are reviewed.
Theoretical and experimental approaches to exploring physical processes in and …

Ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals are polar fluids characterized by microscopic
orientational ordering and macroscopic spontaneous polarizations. Within these fluids …

We propose new semi-implicit numerical methods for the integration of the stochastic
Landau–Lifshitz equation with built-in angular momentum conservation. The performance of …

We review key experimental and theoretical results on the Barkhausen effect, focusing on
the statistical analysis of the noise. We discuss the experimental methods and the material …
