This book presents the comprehensive studies on topological spin textures from the experimental and theoretical perspectives. Based on various experiments such as electrical transport measurement, neutron scattering, and resonant X-ray scattering, it demonstrates the unique multistep topological spin textures among meron and skyrmion crystals in a centrosymmetric magnet. The detailed theoretical study explains the microscopic origin of the versatile topological transitions. This book is a useful resource to researchers in the field of condensed matter physics and material sciences, offering the new insight of the material design guidelines of topological spin textures and their functionality.
