Abstract

Polarization of phonons in a magnetic field has been analyzed in terms of the isotropic model. It has been demonstrated that, in the presence of spin-phonon interaction, phonons possess circular polarization, which is responsible for the appearance of the heat flux component perpendicular to the temperature gradient and the magnetic field.
