Quantum Coherence and Decoherence in Magnetic Nanostructures
Eugene M. Chudnovsky
The prospect of developing magnetic qubits is discussed. The first part of the article makes suggestions on how to achieve the coherent quantum superposition of spin states in smal…

Quantum statistical metastability for a finite spin
D. A. Garanin, E. M. Chudnovsky
We study quantum-classical escape-rate transitions for uniaxial and biaxial models with finite spins S=10 (such as Mn_12Ac and Fe_8) and S=100 by a direct numerical approach. At se…

Spin Tunneling in Mn-12 Cannot be Assisted by Phonons at Millikelvin Temperatures [Comment on PRL 83, 416 (1999) by Bellessa et al]
E. M. Chudnovsky, D. A. Garanin
Recently, Bellessa et al in a Physical Review Letter entitled "Phonon-Assisted Tunneling in High-Spin Molecules: Experimental Evidence", reported observation of a peak in the imagi…
