Dispersion characteristics of surface magnetostatic waves with dissipation

Resumo

It is shown that unlike undamped waves, the dispersion characteristics of spin surface waves with dissipation have a maximum wave number at which there is a downward reversal in the dispersion curve of a wave number. This forms the upper branch of a dispersion curve with inverse dispersion and high attenuation, leading to an unclear frequency dependence of the wave vector. The lower primary dispersion branch corresponds to waves with forward dispersion, and attenuation is proportional to the small parameter of dissipation. However, the coefficient of wave attenuation grows sharply near the maximum wave number. Some angular and frequency limits of surface wave propagation change as well.
