Intrinsic phase coherence between individual topologically stable knots in spin arrangement - skyrmions - is known to induce the crystalline-like structure in the A-phase of non-centrosymmetric MnSi with chiral spin-orbit interaction. Here we report the experimental evidence for two types of the skyrmion lattice (SL) inside the A-phase of MnSi, which are distinguished by different coupling to the anisotropic magnetic interactions. The transition between these SLs is shown to induce a change in magnetic scattering between isotropic MR discovered in the area inside the A-phase (the A-phase core) and anisotropic MR found on the border of the A-phase. We argue that the SL in the A-phase core corresponds to the dense skyrmion state built from individual skyrmions in a way similar to Abrikosov-type magnetic vortexes.

According to an earlier Abrikosov model, a positive, nonsaturating, linear magnetoresistivity (LMR) is expected in clean, low-carrier-density metals when measured at very low temperatures and under very high magnetic fields. Recently, a vast class of materials were shown to exhibit extraordinary high LMR but at conditions that deviate sharply from the above-mentioned Abrikosov-type conditions. Such deviations are often considered within either classical Parish-Littlewood scenario of random-conductivity network or within a quantum scenario of small-effective mass or low carriers at tiny pockets neighboring the Fermi surface.
