description

The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the transition temperature and the hysteresis widths of first-order spin crossover phase transitions is considered in the frame of the mean field theory and on the basis of the scope of recent pressure experiments. Relevant parameters for a qualitative description of the behaviour of spin transition compounds under pressure are derived and analysed.
