Magnons are fundamental excitations of magnetic order. Recently, their diffusive
transport properties are investigated in nanostructures based on ferrimagnetic
insulators. I will discuss how the effective magnon resistance can be radically
altered using spin Hall physics. In the second part of my presentation, I will focus
on the hybridization of magnons with microwave photons and how this strongly
coupled system provides a pathway for quantum magnonics.
