“…Mag- Table 1. netization reversal in FM nanowires proceeds by nucleation of a pair of domain walls at the free ends of the nanowire, their propagation with opposite velocities and eventually their merge at the center of the wire [6,8,25]. The coupling to an AF shell (S2) modifies the reversal mechanism, as previous experimental [19] and numerical [19,23] works have demonstrated. In an ideal FM/AF nanowire (S2), as it was mentioned above, the unsatisfied bonds at the interface act as nucleation centers of a secondary magnetization reversal mechanism.…”
