Abstract
The process of rearrangement of the magnetic structure of the low-spin clus ter V-15 in superhigh magnetic fields is investigated. At low temperatures, this process is shown to manifest itself as three quantum jumps, each of w hich is a transition causing the spin of the complex to increase by two uni ties. The nature of these quantum jumps is discussed. The magnetization cur ve and the magnetic susceptibility are calculated. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka/Int erperiodica".
