Sketch of the extreme case where the MFM tip oscillates parallel to the local microtube surface (ϕ=90) with two different simplified magnetic domain configurations. (a) For domain walls parallel to the tip oscillation direction, no MFM signal is expected due to vanishing magnetostatic force z-component. (b) Domain walls perpendicular to the tip oscillation direction cause a detectable MFM signal.
