Braiding with magnetic octupoles
We simulate the trajectories of magnetic octupole colloids driven by periodic loops of an external magnetic field and placed above a two-dimensional threefold symmetric magnetic pattern. The octupoles avoid the threefold symmetric points above the lattice, either in a topologically trivial way, or b...
