The effect of pressure on magnetic properties of LaCoO$_3$ is studied experimentally and theoretically. The pressure dependence of magnetic susceptibility $chi$ of LaCoO$_3$ is obtained by precise measurements of $chi$ as a function of the hydrostatic pressure $P$ up to 2 kbar in the temperature range from 78 K to 300 K. A pronounced magnitude of the pressure effect is found to be negative in sign and strongly temperature dependent. The obtained experimental data are analysed by using a two-level model and DFT+U calculations of the electronic structure of LaCoO$_3$. In particular, the fixed spin moment method was employed to obtain a volume dependence of the total energy difference $Delta$ between the low spin and the intermediate spin states of LaCoO$_3$. Analysis of the obtained experimental $chi(P)$ dependence within the two-level model, as well as our DFT+U calculations, have revealed the anomalous large decrease in the energy difference $Delta$ with increasing of the unit cell volume. This effect, taking into account a thermal expansion, can be responsible for the temperatures dependence of $Delta$, predicting its vanishing near room temperature.

Magnetic susceptibility $chi$ of the polycrystalline sample of samarium monosulfide was measured as a function of the hydrostatic pressure $P$ up to 2 kbar at liquid nitrogen and room temperatures using a pendulum-type magnetometer. A pronounced magn
itude of the pressure effect is found to be positive in sign and strongly temperature dependent: the pressure derivatives of $chi$, d,ln$chi$/d$P$, are $6.3pm0.5$ and $14.2pm1$ Mbar$^{-1}$ at 300 and 78 K, respectively. The obtained experimental results are discussed within phenomenological approaches.
We study ferromagnetic ordering and microscopic inhomogeneity in tensile strained LaCoO$_3$ using numerical simulations. We argue that both phenomena originate from effective superexchange interactions between atoms in the high-spin (HS) state mediat
ed by the intermediate-spin excitations. We derive a model of the HS excitation as a bare atomic state dressed by electron and electron-hole fluctuations on the neighbor atoms. We construct a series of approximations to account for electron correlation effects responsible for HS fluctuations and magnetic exchange. The obtained amplitudes and directional dependence of magnetic couplings between the dressed HS states show a qualitative agreement with experimental observations and provide a new physical picture of LaCoO$_3$ films.
Spin crossover is expected to enrich unusual physical states in various types of condensed matter. Through inelastic neutron scattering, we study the spin-state excitations in the canonical and advanced platform, LaCoO$_3$, and reveal that the spatia
l correlation robustly maintains the seven-Co-site size below 300 K and the internal Co-$d$ electrons are spatially delocalized. By combining theoretical calculations, this dynamical short-range order is identified as a new collective unit for describing spin-state with dual spin-state nature beyond the conventional one-Co-site classification.
The spin transition in LaCoO$_3$ has been investigated within the density-functional theory + dynamical mean-field theory formalism using continuous time quantum Monte Carlo. Calculations on the experimental rhombohedral atomic structure with two Co
sites per unit cell show that an independent treatment of the Co atoms results in a ground state with strong charge fluctuations induced by electronic correlations. Each atom shows a contribution from either a $d^5$ or a $d^7$ state in addition to the main $d^6$ state. These states play a relevant role in the spin transition which can be understood as a low spin-high spin (LS-HS) transition with significant contributions ($sim$ $10$ %) to the LS and HS states of $d^5$ and $d^7$ states respectively. A thermodynamic analysis reveals a significant kinetic energy gain through introduction of charge fluctuations, which in addition to the potential energy reduction lowers the total energy of the system.
We report the magnetic field dependent dc magnetization and the pressure-dependent (pmax ~ 16 kbar) ac susceptibilities Xp(T) on both powder and bulk multiferroic BiMnO3 samples, synthesized in different batches under high pressure. A clear ferromagn
etic (FM) transition is observed at TC ~ 100 K, and increases with magnetic field. The magnetic hysteresis behavior is similar to that of a soft ferromagnet. Ac susceptibility data indicate that both the FM peak and its temperature (TC) decrease simultaneously with increasing pressure. Interestingly, above a certain pressure (9 ~ 11 kbar), another peak appears at Tp ~ 93 K, which also decreases with increasing pressure, with both these peaks persisting over some intermediate pressure range (9 ~ 13 kbar). The FM peak disappears with further application of pressure; however, the second peak survives until present pressure limit (pmax ~ 16 kbar). These features are considered to originate from the complex interplay of the magnetic and orbital structure of BiMnO3 being affected by pressure.
