Ball solitons in kinetics of the first-order magnetic phase transition

The theory of magnetic ball solitons (BS) arising as a result of the energy fluctuations, at the spin-flop transition induced by a magnetic field in antiferromagnets with uniaxial anisotropy, is presented. Such solitons are possible in a wide range of amplitudes and energies, including the negative energy relative to an initial condition. When such antiferromagnet is in a metastable condition, ball solitons are born with the greatest probability if the energy of solitons is close to zero. Evolution of these solitons, at which they develop into macroscopic domains of a new magnetic phase, is analyzed, thus, carrying out full phase reorganization.
