The purpose of this book is to provide a theoretical foundation and an understanding of
atomistic spin-dynamics (ASD), and to give examples of where the atomistic Landau-Lifshitz …

In this review we introduce computer modelling and simulation techniques which are used
for ferrimagnetic materials. We focus on models where thermal effects are accounted for …

Elementary spin excitations (magnons) play a fundamental role in condensed matter
physics, since many phenomena eg magnetic ordering, electrical (as well as heat) transport …

There has been much interest recently in the discovery of thermally induced magnetisation
switching using femtosecond laser excitation, where a ferrimagnetic system can be switched …

In this work we examine critically the electronic structure of the rare-earth elements by use of
the so-called Hubbard I approximation. From the theoretical side all measured features of …

In recent years, the fundamental physics of spin-lattice (eg, magnon-phonon) interaction has
attracted significant experimental and theoretical interests given its potential paradigm …

We present theoretical studies of the influence of spin-orbit coupling on the spin-wave
excitations of the Fe monolayer and bilayer on the W (110) surface. The Dzyaloshinskii …

This topical review presents an overview of the recent experimental and theoretical attempts
on designing magnonic crystals for operation at different frequencies. The focus is put on the …

Atomistic spin dynamics simulations have evolved to become a powerful and versatile tool
for simulating dynamic properties of magnetic materials. It has a wide range of applications …

We study the influence of nonlocal damping on the magnon properties of Fe, Co, Ni, and Fe
1− x Co x (x= 30%, 50%) alloys. The Gilbert damping parameter is typically considered as a …
