We show that the newly discovered 52Cr Bose condensate in zero magnetic field can be a spin nematic of the following kind: a "maximum" polar state, a "colinear" polar state, or a biaxial nematic ferromagnetic state. We also present the phase diagram with a magnetic field in the interaction subspace containing the chromium condensate. It contains many uniaxial and biaxial spin nematic phases, which often but not always break time reversal symmetry, and can exist with or without spontaneous magnetization.
我们表明,新发现的处于零磁场中的52Cr玻色凝聚体可以是以下类型的自旋向列相:“最大”极化态、“共线”极化态或双轴向列铁磁态。我们还给出了包含铬凝聚体的相互作用子空间中磁场的相图。它包含许多单轴和双轴自旋向列相,这些相常常但并非总是破坏时间反演对称性,并且可以在有或没有自发磁化的情况下存在。
