contents We show that a resonance due to gyroscopic motion of skyrmions, conceptually similar to the electron cyclotron resonance in metals, can be excited in a ferrimagnetic film by a spin current or microwaves. It must permit unambiguous measurement of the skyrmion mass for which a universal expression depending solely on the exchange interaction between spins belonging to two different ferrimagnetic sublattices is derived. The dependence of the skyrmion cyclotron frequency on parameters is computed for a TM/RE ferrimagnet, using CoGd as an example. The cyclotron frequency exhibits a dip near the angular momentum compensation point, where it hybridizes with the ferromagnetic resonance. The skyrmion cyclotron mode is studied for individual skyrmions and for skyrmion lattices, where the effect must be strong enough to be observed in microwave and spin-current experiments.
