Magnetic skyrmions are topological objects that have been recently extensively studied for their particular characteristics and a view to be used in spintronics devices. The authors present a Small Angle Neutron Scattering study of the deformation of magnetic skyrmion lattice propelled by an electric current and find that the skyrmions experience frictional movement at the edges of their sample providing better understanding of the motion of skyrmions.
