abstract = {The ultrafast nonthermal control of magnetization has
recently become feasible in canted antiferromagnets through
photomagnetic instantaneous pulses [A. V. Kimel , Nature
435, 655 (2005)]. In this experiment, circularly polarized
femtosecond laser pulses set up a strong magnetic field
along the wave vector of the radiation through the inverse
Faraday effect, thereby exciting nonthermally the spin
dynamics of dysprosium orthoferrites. A theoretical study is
performed by using a model for orthoferrites based on a
general form of free energy whose parameters are extracted
from experimental measurements. The magnetization dynamics
is described by solving coupled sublattice
Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations whose damping term is
associated with the scattering rate due to magnon-magnon
interaction. Due to the inverse Faraday effect and the
nonthermal excitation, the effect of the laser is simulated
by magnetic-field Gaussian pulses with temporal width of the
order of 100 fs. When the field is along the z axis, a
single resonance mode of the magnetization is excited. The
amplitude of the magnetization and out-of-phase behavior of
the oscillations for fields in the z and -z directions are
in good agreement with the cited experiment. The analysis of
the effect of the temperature shows that the magnon-magnon
scattering mechanism affects the decay of the oscillations
on the picosecond scale. Finally, when the field pulse is
along the x axis, another mode is excited, as observed in
experiments. In this case, a comparison between theoretical
and experimental results shows some discrepancies, the
origin of which is related to the role played by
anisotropies in orthoferrites.},
