(color online) Plots of velocity and trajectory of vortex core at the corresponding critical current density for three current combinations ((a) for ( , , , (b) for ( , , and (c) for ( , , ). The red line denotes the critical velocity of vortex core switching, its value is 350 m/s, and the black empty circles and red solid circles represent the trajectories before and after switching, respectively.
