- "An external magnetic bias field with magnitude $80 \\,\\text{kA/m}$ is applied along the direction $e = (1, 0.715, 0)$. We choose the external magnetic field direction slightly off the sample diagonal in order to break the system’s symmetry and thus avoid degenerate eigenmodes. First, we initialize the system with a uniform out-of-plane magnetization $m_{0} = (0, 0, 1)$. The system is allowed to relax for $5 \\,\\text{ns}$, which was found to be sufficient time to obtain a well-converged equilibrium magnetization configuration. We refer to this stage of simulation as the relaxation stage, and its final relaxed magnetization configuration is saved to serve as the initial configuration for the next dynamic stage. Because we want to use a well defined method that is supported by all simulation tools, we minimize the system’s energy by integrating the LLG equation with a large, quasistatic Gilbert damping $\\alpha = 1$ for $5 \\,\\text{ns}$. In the next step (dynamic stage), a simulation is started using the equilibrium magnetisation configuration from the relaxation stage as the initial configuration. Now, the direction of an external magnetic field is altered to $e = (1, 0.7, 0)$. This simulation stage runs for $T = 20 \\,\\text{ns}$ while the (average and spatially resolved) magnetization $M(t)$ is recorded every $\\Delta t = 5 \\,\\text{ps}$. The Gilbert damping in this dynamic simulation stage is $\\alpha = 0.008$.\n",
