We have measured the magnetization and specific heat of multiferroic CoCr2O4 in magnetic fields up to 14 T. The high-field magnetization measurements indicate a new phase transition at T* = 5 - 6 K. The phase between T* and the lock-in transition at 15 K is characterized by magnetic irreversibility. At higher magnetic fields, the irreversibility increases. Specific-heat measurements confirm the transition at T*, and also show irreversible behavior. We construct a field-temperature phase diagram of CoCr2O4.

Single shot x-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments have been performed with a x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) under pulsed high magnetic fields up to 16 T generated with a nondestructive minicoil. The antiferromagnetic insulator phase in a perovskite manganaite, Pr$_{0.6}$Ca$_{0.4}$MnO$_{3}$, is collapsed at a magnetic field of $approx 8$ T with an emergence of the ferromagnetic metallic phase, which is observed via the accompanying lattice changes in a series of the single shot XRD. The feasibility of the single shot XRD experiment under ultrahigh magnetic fields beyond 100 T is discussed, which is generated with a portable destructive pulse magnet.
Magneto-caloric effects (MCEs) measurement system in adiabatic condition is proposed to investigate the thermodynamic properties in pulsed magnetic fields up to 55 T. With taking the advantage of the fast field- sweep rate in pulsed field, adiabatic measurements of MCEs were carried out at various temperatures. To obtain the prompt response of the thermometer in the pulsed field, a thin film thermometer is grown directly on the sample surfaces. The validity of the present setup was demonstrated in the wide temperature range through the measurements on Gd at about room temperature and on Gd3Ga5O12 at low temperatures. The both results show reasonable agreement with the data reported earlier. By comparing the MCE data with the specific heat data, we could estimate the entropy as functions of magnetic field and temperature. The results demonstrate the possibility that our approach can trace the change in transition temperature caused by the external field.
Comprehensive magnetic-field-temperature ($H$-$T$) phase diagram of solid oxygen including the $theta$ phase is discussed in the context of the ultrahigh-field measurement and the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) measurement. The problems originating from the short duration of the pulse field, non-equilibrium condition and MCEs, are pointed out and dealt with. The obtained phase diagram manifests the entropy relation between the phases as $S_theta sim S_alpha<S_beta<<S_gamma$.
Crystal and electronic structure, lattice dynamics and thermodynamic stability of little known mixed valent diamagnetic AgIAgIIIF4 beta form of AgF2 is thoroughly examined for the first time and compared with well known antiferromagnetic AgIIF2 alpha form within the framework of Density Functional Theory based methods, phonon direct method and quasiharmonic approximation. Computed equations of state, bulk moduli, electronic densities of states, electronic and phonon band structures including analysis of optically active modes and p T phase diagram of the alpha/beta system are presented. This study demonstrates that alpha is thermodynamically preferred over beta at all temperatures and pressures of its existance but simultaneously beta is dynamically stable in much broader pressure range. The beta phase is discussed in broader context of isostructural ternary metal fluorides and isolectronic oxides including NaCuO2, the reference compound for existence of CuIII species in high temperature oxocuprate superconductors.
Single crystalline samples of the van der Waals antiferromagnet CrPS4 were studied by measurements of specific heat and comprehensive anisotropic temperature- and magnetic field-dependent magnetization. In addition, measurements of the heat capacity and magnetization were performed under pressures of up to ~21 kbar and ~14 kbar respectively. At ambient pressure, two magnetic transitions are observed, second order from a paramagnetic to an antiferromagnetic state at TN ~ 37 K, and a first-order spin reorientation transition at T* ~ 34 K. Anisotropic H - T phase diagrams were constructed using the M(T,H) data. As pressure is increased, TN is weakly suppressed with dTN/dP ~ -0.1 K/kbar. T*, on the other hand, is suppressed quite rapidly, with dT*/dP ~ -2 K/kbar, extrapolating to a possible quantum phase transition at Pc ~ 15 kbar.
