The results are compared to previous numerical results for solitons with topological charge $\\pm 1$. A key feature of the calculation is the interpretation of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) as a background $SO(3)$ gauge field. In a tilted field, this leads to a $U(1)$-gauged version of the usual equation for spin excitations, leading to a distinctive oscillating interaction profile. We also obtain predictions for skyrmion stability in a tilted field which closely match numerical observations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-11-15T10:03:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "70S20" ], "keywords": [ "chiral magnetic skyrmions", "tilted magnetic field", "asymptotic interactions", "chiral magnetic solitons", "tilted external magnetic field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 35, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
