Coherent wave states such as Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), which spontaneously form in an overpopulated magnon gas even at room temperature, have considerable potential for wave-based computing and information processing at microwave…

We consider the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation of quasi-equilibrium magnons which leads to a spin superfluidity, the coherent quantum transfer of magnetization in magnetic materials. These phenomena are beyond the classical…
