The Chimera skyrmion collapse mechanism in harmonic transition state theory — •Stephan von Malottki1, Pavel F. Bessarab2,3, and Stefan Heinze11Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, University of Kiel — 2University of Iceland, Reykjavík, Iceland — 3ITMO University, St. Petersburg, Russia

Recent studies reveal a new skyrmion annihilation mechanism via the Chimera skyrmion state [1-3]. We study the skyrmion lifetimes for this collapse mechanism in the ultrathin film system Pd/Fe/Ir(111) by a combination of nudged elastic band method calculations and harmonic transition state theory, based on an atomistic spin model parametrised from density functional theory [4]. The skyrmion lifetime has the form of an Arrhenius law and requires the energy barriers and prefactors of all relevant collapse mechanisms [5,6]. We address the crossover from the radial symmetric skyrmion collapse to the Chimera mechanism as well as the challenge of identifying and treating new Goldstone modes correctly.
