• Abstract: Spinor Bose-Einstein condensates under external magnetic fields exhibit well-characterized spin domains of its ground state due to spin-dependent interactions. At low temperatures, collision-induced spin-mixing instabilities may promote the condensate to dwell into metastable states occurring near the phase boundaries. In this work, we study theoretically the metastable spin-phase diagram of a spin-1 antiferromagnetic Bose-Einstein condensate at zero and finite temperatures. The approach makes use of Hartree-Fock theory and exploits the symmetry of the Hamiltonian and of the order parameters yielding a closed system of transcendental equations for the free energy, fully avoiding the use of selfconsistency. Our results are consistent with recent experiments and allow us to explain qualitatively the different types of observed quench dynamics. In addition, we found that similar phenomena should occur in antiferromagnetic spinor condensates with a sudden change in the temperature. It is shown also that the increase of temperature induces a traceable shift of the Ferromagnetic-Polar transition boundary, behavior previously not noticed by selfconsistent mean-field calculations.

  Altermagnetism represents a new type of collinear magnetism distinct from ferromagnetism and conventional antiferromagnetism. We show theoretically how a d-wave altermagnetic phase can be realized with ultracold fermionic atoms in optical lattices. One of the defining characteristics of altermagnetism, the anisotropic spin transport, can be probed with trap-expansion experiments.

  We investigate the coherent spin dynamics of a hetero-spin system formed by a spin S=1 featuring a non-zero crystal field. We show that the zero-quantum coherences we create between them can be remarkably long-lived. These spin dyads could be exploited as nanoscale gradiometers for precision magnetometry or as probes for magnetic-noise-free electrometry and thermal sensing.

  We study the variational perturbations for the mean-field solution of an interacting spinor system with underlying rotational symmetries.

We apply it to characterize the phases of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate and to study the behavior of these phases with entropy.

  We report the existence of a sizeable quantum tunnelling splitting between the two lowest electronic spin levels of mononuclear Ni complexes. The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments. The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
