Summary of Experimental Observations
● rotation for current perpendicular to field● no effect for current parallel to applied field● no effect in helical state● no effect in conical state
sense of rotation changes under:● inversion of current direction● inversion of field direction● inversion small T gradient
● low threshold for rotation: 106 Am-2
● same behavior for different sample shapesand orientations

T gradient ⇒ gradient of spin current
counter-force to „effective Lorentz force“
resulting torque on skyrmion lattice
(assumes rigid skyrmion lattice)

very efficent gyro-coupling via Berry phase+ coupling over entire magnetic domains
very weak pinning forces+ low defect concentration (RRR>100)+ very smooth magnetic texture (200Å)+ very stiff magnetic order cf. collective pinning in superconductors
Why ultra-low current densities?
