Cubic chiral magnets, such as MnSi, are prototypical systems for the investigation of various spin structures. They are stabilized by the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction (DMI), which also gives rise to a universal magnon dispersion [1], [2].
Recently, the effect of non-reciprocal spin wave excitations, which generally emerge from the lack of inversion symmetry, were intensively studied in the field-polarized and helimagnetic phase of MnSi with inelastic neutron scattering [3]. Due to the excellent compatibility between the low-energy theory and the comprehensive measurements, we currently apply a related approach to describe the magnetic excitations found in the skyrmion phase.
