A chiral spin soliton lattice (CSL), one of the representative systems of a magnetic superstructure, exhibits reconfigurability in periodicity over a macroscopic length scale. Such coherent and tunable characteristics of the CSL lead to an emergence of elementary excitation of the CSL as phononlike modes due to translational symmetry breaking and bring a controllability of the dispersion relation of the CSL phonon. Using a broadband microwave spectroscopy technique, we directly found that higher-order magnetic resonance modes appear in the CSL phase of a chiral helimagnet CrNb_{3}S_{6}, which is ascribed to the CSL phonon response.

As first demonstrated by Tang and Cohen in chiral optics, the asymmetry in the rate of electromagnetic energy absorption between left and right enantiomers is determined by an optical chirality density. Here, we demonstrate that this effect can exist in magnetic spin systems. By constructing a formal analogy with electrodynamics, we show that in antiferromagnets with broken chiral symmetry, the asymmetry in local spin-wave energy absorption is proportional to a spin-wave chirality density, which is a direct counterpart of optical zilch.

We consider magnetotransport properties in a conducting chiral helimagnet, where the magnetic kink crystal (MKC) is formed under weak magnetic field applied perpendicular to the helical axis. The MKC behaves as a magnetic superlattice potential and results in Bragg scattering of conduction electrons. Tuning of the weak magnetic field enables us to control the size of the superlattice Brillouin zone and gives rise to a series of divergent resistivity anomalies originating from resonant Bragg scatterings.
