The reversal of spins in a magnetic material as they relax toward equilibrium is accompanied by the release of Zeeman energy which can lead to accelerated spin relaxation and the formation of a well-defined self-sustained propagating spin-reversal front known as magnetic deflagration. To date, studies of Mn$_{12}$-acetate single crystals have focused mainly on deflagration in large longitudinal magnetic fields and found a fully spin-reversed final state. We report a systematic study of the effect of transverse magnetic field on magnetic deflagration and demonstrate that in small longitudinal fields the final state consists of only partially reversed spins. Further, we measured the front speed as a function of applied magnetic field. The theory of magnetic deflagration, together with a modification that takes into account the partial spin reversal, fits the transverse field dependence of the front speed but not its dependence on longitudinal field. The most significant result of this study is the finding of a partially spin-reversed final state, which is evidence that the spins at the deflagration front are also only partially reversed.

We report measurements on magnetization reversal in the Fe$_8$ molecular magnet using fast pulsed magnetic fields of 1.5 kT/s and in the temperature range of 0.6-4.1 K. We observe and analyze the temperature dependence of the reversal process, which
involves in some cases several resonances. Our experiments allow observation of resonant quantum tunneling of magnetization up to a temperature of $sim$ 4 K. We also observe shifts of the resonance fields in temperature that suggest the emergence of a thermal instability---a combination of spin reversal and self-heating that may result in a magnetic deflagration process. The results are mainly understood in the framework of thermally-activated quantum tunneling transitions in combination with emergence of a thermal instability.
Experimental evidence of the anisotropy of the magnetic deflagration associated with the low-temperature first order antiferromagnetic (AFM) --> ferromagnetic (FM) phase-transition in single crystals of Gd5Ge4 is reported. The deflagrations have been
induced by controlled pulses of surface acoustic waves (SAW) allowing us to explore both the magnetic field and temperature dependencies on the characteristic times of the phenomenon. The study was done using samples with different geometries and configurations between the SAW pulses and the direction of the applied magnetic field with respect to the three main crystallographic directions of the samples. The effect of temperature is nearly negligible, whereas observed strong magnetic field dependence correlates with the magnetic anisotropy of the sample. Finally, the role of the SAW pulses in both the ignition and formation of the deflagration front was also studied, and we show that the thermal diffusivity of Gd5Ge4 must be anisotropic, following kappaa>kappab>kappac.
We extend the existing theoretical model for determining the characteristic features of magnetic deflagration in nanomagnet crystals. For the first time, all energy levels are accounted for calculation of the the Zeeman energy, the deflagration veloc
ity, and other parameters. It reduces the final temperature and significantly changes the propagation velocity of the spin-flipping front. We also consider the effect of a strong transverse magnetic field, and show that the latter significantly modifies the spin-state structure, leading to an uncertainty concerning the activation energy of the spin flipping. Our front velocity prediction for a crystal of Mn$_{12}$-acetate in a longitudinal magnetic field is in much better agreement with experimental data than the previous reduced-model results.
For the first time, the morphology and dynamics of spin avalanches in Mn12-Acetate crystals using magneto-optical imaging has been explored. We observe an inhomogeneous relaxation of the magnetization, the spins reversing first at one edge of the cry
stal and a few milliseconds later at the other end. Our data fit well with the theory of magnetic deflagration, demonstrating that very slow deflagration rates can be obtained, which makes new types of experiments possible.
The energy released in a magnetic material by reversing spins as they relax toward equilibrium can lead to a dynamical instability that ignites self-sustained rapid relaxation along a deflagration front that propagates at a constant subsonic speed. U
sing a trigger heat pulse and transverse and longitudinal magnetic fields, we investigate and control the crossover between thermally driven magnetic relaxation and magnetic deflagration in single crystals of Mn$_{12}$-acetate.
