Dynamics of Einstein - de Haas Effect: Application to Magnetic Cantilever
Reem Jaafar, E. M. Chudnovsky, D. A. Garanin
Local time-dependent theory of Einstein - de Haas effect is developed. We begin with microscopicinteractions and derive dynamical equations that couple elastic deformations with in…
Are superparamagnetic spins classical?
D. A. Garanin
Effective giant spins of magnetic nanoparticles are considered classically in the conventional theory of superparamagnetism based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Langevin equation. However,…
Effect of environmental spins on Landau-Zener transitions
D. A. Garanin, R. Neb, R. Schilling
Landau-Zener (LZ) transitions of a two-level system (e. g., electronic spin in molecular magnets) coupled to one or many environmental spins (e. g., nuclear spins) are studied. For…
Density Matrix Equation for a Bathed Small System and its Application to Molecular Magnets
D. A. Garanin
The technique of density matrix equation (DME) for a small system interacting with a bath is explained in detail. Special attention is given to the nonsecular DME that is needed in…
Dipolar Ordering and Quantum Dynamics of Domain Walls in Mn-12 Acetate
D. A. Garanin, E. M. Chudnovsky
We find that dipolar interactions favor ferromagnetic ordering of elongated crystals of Mn12 Acetate below 0.8 K. Ordered crystals must possess domain walls. Motion of the wall cor…
Extended Debye Model for Molecular Magnets
D. A. Garanin
Heat capacity data on Mn12 are fitted within the extended Debye model that takes into account a continuum of optical modes as well as three different speeds of sound.
