title: Magnetic-dipolar and electromagnetic vortices in quasi-2D ferrite discs.
abstract: Magnetic-dipolar-mode (MDM) oscillations in a quasi-2D ferrite disc show unique dynamical symmetry properties resulting in the appearance of topologically distinct structures. Based on the magnetostatic (MS) spectral problem solutions, in this paper we give evidence for eigen-MS power-flow-density vortices in a ferrite disc. Due to these circular eigen-power flows, the MDMs are characterized by MS energy eigenstates. It becomes evident that the reason for stability of the vortex configurations in saturated ferrite samples is completely different from the nature of stability in magnetically soft cylindrical dots. We found a clear correspondence between analytically derived MDM vortex states and numerically modeled electromagnetic vortices in quasi-2D ferrite discs.
