Reentrant Rigidity Percolation in Structurally Correlated Filamentous Networks

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Jonathan Michel, Gabriel von Kessel, Thomas Wyse Jackson, Lawrence J. Bonassar, Itai Cohen | Summary: Many biological tissues feature a heterogeneous network of fibers whose tensile and bending rigidity contribute substantially to these tissues’ elastic properties. Rigidity percolation has emerged as a important paradigm for relating these […]

A puzzling insensitivity of magnon spin diffusion to the presence of 180$^circ$ domain walls in a ferrimagnetic insulator

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel C. Ralph | First 5 Authors: Ruofan Li, Lauren J. Riddiford, Yahong Chai, Minyi Dai, Hai Zhong | Summary: We present room-temperature measurements of magnon spin diffusion in epitaxial ferrimagnetic insulator MgAl$_{0.5}$Fe$_{1.5}$O$_{4}$ (MAFO) thin films near zero applied magnetic field where the sample forms a multi-domain state. Due to a weak uniaxial […]
