Analytical approximations to the core radius and energy of magnetic
vortex in thin ferromagnetic disks    [PDF]

Konstantin L. Metlov

The energy of magnetic vortex core and its equilibrium radius in thin circular cylinder were first presented by N.A. Usov and S.E. Peschany in 1994. Yet, the magnetostatic function, entering the energy expression, is hard to evaluate and approximate. In this communication precise and explicit analytical approximations to this function (as well as equilibrium vortex core radius and energy) are derived in terms of elementary functions. Also, several simplifying approximations to the magnetic Hamiltonian and their impact on theoretical stability of magnetic vortex state are discussed.
