We discuss a first-order phase transition from non-magnetic to magnetic pha
se at T = 0. New results are presented on a spontaneously formed magnetic p
hase and its energy in the C15 atomic structure, in the presence of the ant
iferromagnetic interaction. A dynamic phase diagram is constructed for the
phase transition. The results are discussed in the context of the pressure-
driven phase transition, which was observed experimentally in YMn2.
