Popis: The main goal of this work was to detect the magnetosensitive spin-dependent reactions between structural defects and their influence on the plasticity of ionic crystals. It was found that coincidence of quantum energy of a microwave field with the Zeeman splitting energy of electronic spin sublevels of paramagnetic centres leads to an increase in the relaxation rate of assemblages of the defects excited by quenching and, as a result, to resonant weakening of crystals. It means that the electron and nuclear spin states of the defects are of importance in the formation of plasticity in crystals.
