Magnon Bose condensation in symmetry breaking magnetic field
Magnon Bose condensation (BC)in the symmetry breaking magnetic field is a result of unusual form of the Zeeman energy, which has terms linear in the spin-wave operators and terms mixing excitations differ in the Wave-vector of the magnetic structure. The following examples are considered: simple easy-plane tetragonal antiferromagnets (AF), frustrated AF family$R_2Cu O_4$ where $R=Pr,Nd$ etc. and cubic magnets with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction ($Mn Si$ etc.). In all cases the BC becomes important when the magnetic field becomes comparable with the spin-wave gap. The theory is illustrated by existing experimental results.
