However, simulating the intricate internal structure of skyrmions remains computationally demanding. A practical alternative involves modeling these magnetic structures as particles, akin to molecular simulations in biophysics. Until now, though, a direct correlation between simulation time and real experimental time had not been established.
"We can now not only quantitatively predict the dynamics of skyrmions, but the simulations are also similar in speed to the experiments," explained theoretical physicist Maarten A. Brems, who played a key role in developing the methodology.
Professor Mathias Klaui highlighted the significance of this advancement: "The predictive power of the new simulations will significantly accelerate the development of skyrmion-based applications, especially with regard to novel, alternative energy-saving computer architectures, which are the focus of JGU's Top-level Research Area 'TopDyn - Dynamics and Topology,' amongst others."
This breakthrough in skyrmion simulation methodology brings researchers closer to practical applications, offering a pathway toward more efficient, energy-saving computational technologies.
