We present overdamped micromagnetic simulations of the time evolution of magnetic droplet solitons which are formed in a thin film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy by injecting a spin polarized current through a circular nanocontact. The overdamped dynamics help explore the effective energy landscape of these structures and permit identification of stationary states that are either energy extrema or saddle configurations. Our micromagnetic simulations start with configurations that are numerical solutions of a one-dimensional model where the magnetization depends only on the radial distance to the center of the nanocontact. We verify that these solutions correspond either to energy minima or saddle states, and use them to estimate thermal activation barriers for various current strengths. From the two-dimensional micromagnetic simulations, we identify a new persistent state which does not appear in the one-dimensional model. |
