Nucleation and interactions of 360∘ domain walls on planar ferromagnetic nanowires using circular magnetic fields

We propose a mechanism for nucleation of 360∘ domain walls (DWs) on planar ferromagnetic nanowires, of 100 nm width, by using circular magnetic fields, and find the minimal spacing possible between 360∘ DWs. The extent of the stray field from a 360∘ DW is limited in comparison to 180∘ DWs, allowing...
