MODELS OF SPIN TORQUE USING SELF-CONSISTENT SOLUTIONS OF THE MAGNETISATION AND SPIN ACCUMULATION [PDF]
, 2013 A model of spin accumulation (m) is proposed to develop theoretical approaches to calculate the m in any arbitrary magnetic structure. The model is based on generalising the approach of Zhang, Levy and Fert (PRL 88, 236601, 2002).

Strong variation of spin-orbit torques with relative spin relaxation rates in ferrimagnets
Nature Communications, 2023 There has been a lot of interest in using antiferromagnets for magnetic memories, due to their fast dynamics, and resilience to stray fields. Such a memory was supposed to be switched by a spin-orbit torque. Here, Zhu and Ralph find that as a ferrimagnet
