Abstract

We theoretically study the dynamics of a magnetic vortex under spin-polarized electric current in ferromagnets. The equation of motion of the vortex in terms of collective coordinates is derived. We compare our theory with recent experiments for current-induced vortex displacement and resonance motion in a ferromagnetic nanodot. Our estimate for the displacement and the resonance frequency shows a good agreement with the experiment. We also study the current-induced motion of a vortex wall in a ferromagnetic thin wire.
