dc.descriptionWe have investigated the escape rate of the nanospin particle with a magnetic field applied along the easy axis. The model studied here is described by the Hamiltonian $\hat{\cal H} = K_1 \hat{S}_z^2 + K_2 \hat{S}_y^2 + gμ_b H \hat{S}_x $, $(K_1 > K_2 > 0)$ from which the escape rate is calculated within the semiclassical approximation. We have obtained a diagram for the orders of the phase transitions depending on the anisotropy constant and the external field. For $ K_2 / K_1 > 0.85$ the present model reveals, for the first time, the existence of the first-order transition within the quantum regime.
