Abstract: The evolution of a new-phase nucleus near the first-order spin-reorientation phase transition in magnets has been investigated. A strong influence of one-dimensional magnetic anisotropy “defects” on the nucleation dynamics has been shown. The conditions of the localization of the new-phase nucleus in the region of the magnetic anisotropy “defect” have been determined.
