Magnetic configurations along the hysteresis loops for the different reversal modes displayed in Fig. 4 (left and right columns correspond to panels (a) and (c) of that figure). Upper panels represent the height profiles of the quantities θ, mz⟩, and <mϕ averaged per layer for the tube (8,15) and γ= 0.035, whereas lower ones present snapshots of the spin configurations taken at points labeled in Fig. 4.
