Symmetry, Volume 15, Issue 2

2023 February - 311 articles

Cover Story: The anisotropy of physical phenomena is indissociable from the symmetry of the considered system or the absence thereof. This interdependence is central to magnetism, where the pseudovector character of the spin and orbital magnetic moments renders geometry arguments particularly appealing. Theoretical investigations demonstrate how adatoms can be used to trigger and control the chirality of the magnetic interactions in small transition-metal alloy clusters. Quantitative relations between symmetry breaking, local atomic environment, and chiral couplings are revealed by performing quantum-mechanical calculations of the electronic energy of the alloy clusters and by carrying out a local analysis of the results for different magnetic textures, including their respective mirror images.
