abstract = {When a foreign atom is placed on a surface of a metal, the
surrounding sea of electrons responds by screening the
additional charge leading to oscillations or ripples. On
surfaces, those electrons are sometimes confined to
two-dimensional surface states, whose spin-degeneracy is
lifted due to the Rashba effect arising from the spin-orbit
interaction of electrons and the inversion asymmetric
environment. It is believed that at least for a single
adatom scanning tunneling microscopy measurements are
insensitive to the Rashba splitting; i.e., no signatures in
the charge oscillations will be observed. Resting on
scattering theory, we demonstrate that, if magnetic, one
single adatom is enough to visualize the presence of the
Rashba effect in terms of an induced spin magnetization of
the surrounding electrons exhibiting a twisted spin texture
described as superposition of two Skyrmionic waves of
opposite chirality.},
