Abstract
We find numerically skyrmionic textures with skyrmion number $Q=0$ in ferromagnets with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, perpendicular anisotropy, and the magnetostatic field. These have a skyrmion part and an antiskyrmion part, and they may be called chiral droplets. They are stable in an infinite film as well as in disk-shaped magnetic elements. Droplets are found in films for values of the parameters close to the transition from the ferromagnetic to the spiral phase. Under spin-transfer torque, they move in the direction of the spin flow and behave as solitary waves of Newtonian character, in stark contrast to the Hall dynamics of the standard $Q=1$ skyrmion.
