摘要：

The thermalization of parametrically pumped magnons caused by nonlinear multimagnon scattering processes and leading to the magnon Bose-Einstein condensation is investigated experimentally with high temporal resolution. The threshold pumping power necessary for the thermalization is determined. For pumping powers above this threshold the thermalization time has been found to decrease rapidly with power reaching the value down to 50 ns, which is much smaller than the magnon lifetime.
