Title: Framework for Polarized Magnetic Neutron Scattering from Nanoparticle Assemblies with Vortex-Type Spin Textures

Abstract: Within the framework of the recently introduced multi-nanoparticle power-series expansion method for the polarized small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) cross section, we present analytical expressions for the polarized SANS observables arising from dilute nanoparticle assemblies with antisymmetric vortex-type spin structures. We establish connections between the magnetic correlation coefficients and the magnetic field-dependent vortex-axes distribution function, which is related to the random orientations of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy axes of the nanoparticles. Our analytical results are validated through a comparative analysis with micromagnetic simulations. This framework contributes to a comprehensive understanding of polarized magnetic neutron scattering from spherical nanoparticle systems exhibiting vortex-type spin structures.
