Magnetism has been one of the most intensively studied phenomena in condensed matter physics over the past century. The prospect of developing data storage and manipulation technologies capable of surpassing state-of-the-art schemes in both power efficiency and operational frequency has sparked a surge of interest in spin dynamics. A strong connection has been established between the symmetries exhibited by a magnetic material in equilibrium, and its spin dynamics.
