Abstract

Following the recent developments in materials science and sample fabrication magnetic nanowires and nanotubes became an intensively studied research field in magnetism. However, it should be mentioned that the driving force behind can be attributed to the theoretical, both analytical and numerical predictions of novel magnetic textures and interesting features, such as chiral domain wall motion, the Spin-Cherenkov effect or the curvature-induced magnetochiral effects in general. In this chapter, the static properties of tubular nanomagnets will be reviewed, including magnetic configurations, domain walls, their types, and energetics as well as possible reversal mechanisms. The dynamical properties section is divided into two parts. The first part will guide you through the domain wall motion related to magnetochiral effects. The second part will discuss the general aspects of spin wave propagation. Aspects, being static or dynamic, related to magnetochiral effects or curvature and topology will be addressed mostly. For those interested in a summary of experimental methods to fabricate tubular samples, an overview of all possible techniques one can use to characterize or measure magnetic tubes, or in a guide through all the analytical and numerical formalism developed to investigate the static and dynamic properties of magnetic nanotubes, we kindly ask to read these recently published excellent books by M. Vázquez [1, 2].
