| Summary: | This paper investigates the processes of magnetization reversal of a uniaxial ferromagnetic disk containing a columnar defect of the potential well type in perpendicular and planar magnetic fields. The characteristic stages of magnetization reversal of the domain structure of the disk and vortex-like inhomogeneities forming on the defect are determined. The critical fields of their existence are found and an explanation is given for the presence of a significant difference in their values for the perpendicular and planar fields of the defect magnetization reversal. The role of chirality in the behavior of a Bloch-type magnetic skyrmion during the magnetization reversal of a defect in a planar field is shown. |
