Abstract

The magnetic configurations of the system of magnetic dipoles that have different values and are arranged in a staggered order on a square lattice are studied. A numerical simulation is used to study the phase transitions in the system when the mismatch between the dipoles changes. The restructuring of the magnetic configuration of the system induced by a change in the mismatch is shown to proceed via sequential second-order phase transitions between collinear and noncollinear phases. The numerical simulation results are supported by analytical calculations performed with trial functions.
