Abstract: We report on a micromagnetic study on domain wall (DW) propagation in ferromagnetic nanotubes. It is found that DWs in a tubular geometry are much more robust than ones in flat strips. This is explained by topological considerations. Our simulations show that the Walker breakdown of the DW can be completely suppressed. Constant DW velocities above 1000 m/s are achieved by small fields. A different velocity barrier of the DW propagation is encountered, which significantly reduces the DW mobility. This effect occurs as the DW reaches the phase velocity of spin waves (SWs), thereby triggering a Cherenkov-like emission of SWs. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3643037]
