Scientists discover bizarre new states inside tiny magnetic whirlpools

Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have identified previously unseen oscillation patterns known as Floquet states inside extremely small magnetic vortices. In contrast to earlier studies that relied on powerful laser pulses to generate these states, the Dresden team found that gentle stimulation using magnetic waves is enough. This discovery not only challenges existing ideas in fundamental physics but may also serve as a kind of universal connector link...
