Parameter-Dependent Stability of Magnetic Hopfions — •Niklas Oettgen, Sandra C. Shaju, Maria Azhar, and Karin Everschor-Sitte — Faculty of Physics, University of Duisburg-Essen, Duisburg, Germany

Hopfions are three-dimensional topologically protected magnetic textures that can be considered as closed loops of twisted skyrmion strings. We implement a model of spatially varying Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions in micromagnetic simulations to explore Hopfion stability across a range of external magnetic fields and uniaxial anisotropies. Our simulations identify a clear regime in which the Hopfion remains metastable, and give insight into the conditions required for their formation and robustness.
