Abstrakt: In this paper we discuss the magnetic Purcell effect of a magnetic dipole near a semi-infinite antiferromagnet. Contrary to the electric Purcell effect, the magnetic one is not so well studied in the literature. We derive the dispersion relation of the surface wave existing at an antiferromagnetic-dielectric interface from the calculation of the reflection coefficient of the structure. After characterizing the surface wave we quantize the electromagnetic vector potential of the surface wave. This allows us to discuss the magnetic Purcell effect via the Fermi golden rule.
