"A skyrmion is a knot of magnetic field lines looping around each other. As it drifts from one spot to the next, a skyrmion makes itself anew out of the magnetic field lines that are already there. The knot holds together because magnetic field lines resist passing through one another."

"skyrmion bags" Sounds like a description of Hillary Clinton. Although she's anything but magnetic.

“One particular form of skyrmions is magnetic skyrmions, found in magnetic materials that exhibit spiral magnetism due to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, double-exchange mechanism or competing Heisenberg exchange interactions.”

This is an episode of Big Bang Theory, right?

“Skyrmion Bags”
I think I have to re-register on FR with a new screen name.

Even more so if you shorten it to "skyrmbag".

Thanks for clearing that up for us.

Back in the 80's I came across a ranch hand that got hit by ball lightning.
It came down the chimney, rolled across the room and nailed him as he slept in bed.
He was burned head to toe.

The team revealed the skyrmion bags in a paper published April 1 in the journal Nature Physics.

If I were a physicist, especially a physicist working on skyrmions and antiskyrmions, I would avoid April 1 as a publication date.

You didn’t know that? I would never have owned up to that.

There might be an episode, but I don't have a Television.
My niece played a Higgs Boson in The Younger Scrolls: Skyrmion MMORPG.
