(color online) Topological transition from (a) biskyrmion configuration in MnNiGa[71] to (b) magnetic bubbles with various topological states in MnNiGaY by substitution of rare-earth element Y. (c) MH curve, for the oriented and isotropic bulk samples, measured parallel and perpendicular to the direction of easy magnetization, and the inset showing the second derivative (d2M/dH2) curves of perpendicular magnetization and the M–1/H curve.[83]
