AbstractThe magnetic skyrmion crystal is a periodic array of a swirling topological spin texture. Since it is regarded as an interference pattern by multiple helical spin density waves, the texture changes with the relative phase shifts among the constituent waves. Although such a phase degree of freedom is relevant to not only magnetism but also transport properties, its effect has not been elucidated thus far. We here theoretically show that a phase shift in the skyrmion crystals leads to a tetra-axial vortex crystal and a meron-antimeron crystal, both of which show a staggered pattern of the scalar spin chirality and give rise to nonreciprocal transport phenomena without the spin-orbit coupling. We demonstrate that such a phase shift can be driven by exchange interactions between the localized spins, thermal fluctuations, and long-range chirality interactions in spin-charge coupled systems. Our results provide a further diversity of topological spin textures and open a new field of emergent electromagnetism by the phase shift engineering.

Interactions of the orbital motion on attitude dynamics of the gyrostat satellite are considered in this paper. The mathematical model is derived using the Hamiltonian method for the spin-orbit motion of the spacecraft followed by the reduction of the coupled equations of motion using the extended Deprit canonical transformation. The analytical Melnikov method is used innovatively to study chaos on the complex Spin-Orbit dynamics of the gyrostat satellite. Also, the numerical methods such as Lyapunov exponent criterion, Poincaré section, trajectories of phase portrait, and the time–history responses can be proved the heteroclinic bifurcation and chaotic vibrations in the highly nonlinear system. Using the results based on the Melnikov integral, the parameters of the spacecraft including the mass and inertia moment of satellite with respect to the altitude of orbit can be designed in order to control the bifurcation with a view to prevention of chaos in the system in the absence of an active control system.

AbstractVan der Waals heterostructures composed of multiple few layer crystals allow the engineering of novel materials with predefined properties. As an example, coupling graphene weakly to materials with large spin–orbit coupling (SOC) allows to engineer a sizeable SOC in graphene via proximity effects. The strength of the proximity effect depends on the overlap of the atomic orbitals, therefore, changing the interlayer distance via hydrostatic pressure can be utilized to enhance the interlayer coupling between the layers. In this work, we report measurements on a graphene/WSe2 heterostructure exposed to increasing hydrostatic pressure. A clear transition from weak localization to weak antilocalization is visible as the pressure increases, demonstrating the increase of induced SOC in graphene.
