The stability of a skyrmion in a nanotube

We study the stability of a skyrmion in a nanotube by using micromagnetic simulations. We find that skyrmions can exist stably in a nanotube within a moderate magnetic field range when the magnetic field is perpendicular to the center axis of the nanotube. In nanotubes the shape of the skyrmion is e...
