dc.descriptionA recent article by Stiles et al. (cond-mat/0702020) argued in favor of the Landau-Lifshitz damping term in the micromagnetic equations of motion over that of the more commonly accepted Gilbert damping form. Much of their argument revolved around spin-torque driven domain wall motion in narrow magnetic wires, since the presence of spin-torques can more acutely draw a distinction between the two forms of damping. In this article, the author uses simple arguments and examples to offer an alternative point of view favoring Gilbert.
