Field-orientation-dependent magnetic phases in GdRu_2Si_2 probed with muon-spin spectroscopy

Centrosymmetric GdRu_2Si_2 exhibits a variety of multi-Q magnetic states as a function of temperature and applied magnetic field, including a square skyrmion-lattice phase. The material's behavior is strongly dependent on the direction of the applied field, with different phase diagrams resulting for fields applied parallel or perpendicular to the crystallographic...
