To reveal the origin of the Skyrmion Hall Angle (SkHA) and the temperature-dependence of the skyrmion dynamics, we investigate skyrmion trajectories at different temperatures and drive-amplitudes. We find the velocities to be strongly temperature-dependent, whereas the mechanism of the SkHA is independent of temperature, with different slopes in the depinning and viscous flow regimes. We explain these slopes by revealing the different underlying mechanisms including skyrmion surface tension and -deformation that sets the limit of the maximum velocity in ferromagnetic devices unless counteracted.
