Scaling of skyrmion profiles

[David Cortés-Ortuño]

Hi,

why does the skyrmion m profile does not scale when setting this configuration in a shape?

Say, if I do

    R := 20 * 1e-9

    thickness := 10 * 1e-9

    m.setInShape(cylinder(R, thickness), BlochSkyrmion(1, -1))

then the R parameter is completely irrelevant because the skyrmion will always have the same size.

It's different if I do

    m.setInShape(cylinder(R, thickness), uniform(0, 0, -1))

since the cylinder region is filled correctly.

I also tried defining a cylindrical region and setting the skyrmion there

    m.SetRegion(1, BlochSkyrmion(1, -1))

and nothing happens again. The only way to scale the skyrmion size is using BlochSkyrmion.scale but again, how is the scaling performed? since the scale function arguments are integers.

Regards,

David

If you define the size of a skyrmion as the radius of the mz=0 contour, then the default size is 6.66 times the cell size (in the x direction).

You can rescale the skyrmion with BlochSkyrmion.scale which does accept floating point numbers.
