1941Jrnl. Physics (Moscow) IV. 358/1 Such magnetic excitations will be called..‘magnons’ (this name was suggested by L. Landau). 1971Nature 18 June 424/2 Light scattering research has been revolutionized by the introduction of the laser... Scattering from magnons or spin waves has furthered understanding of antiferromagnetic materials and their phase transitions. 1973Sci. Amer. Jan. 91/1 Phonons and magnons are typical examples of quasiparticles that are bosons. |
