Photoinduced Nonlinear Dynamics of Strongly Correlated Systems with Spin Crossover: Autocatalytic Spin Transition.

Nonlinear phenomena similar to the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction (autocatalytic oscillations of the population of high-spin and low-spin multielectron states of a transition metal ion) in open systems with spin crossover near bistability are considered. The conditions for possible experimental observation of autocatalytic oscillations of the magnetization in magnetically ordered systems with spin crossover are analyzed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
