Magnetic Deflagration

In my talk I will review on both theory and experiments on magnetic deflagration detected in different magnetic systems like molecular magnets, manganites and intermetallic compounds. The experimental observations have been performed using SQUIDS, Hall probes and coils and the ignition of the deflagration has been done using surface acoustic waves, heat and magnetic fields. An important ponit in our experiments is that the magnetic defñagartion is accompanied by the emission of microwaves, case of molecular magnets, colossal changes in the magnetoresistance, case of manganites, and structural modifications in the case of the intermetallic compounds. I will finish commenting the necessary ingredients to observe deflagration in any physical system.
