We have recently conjectured within the framework of the approximate mean-field formalism a cooling process on adiabatic demagnetization of antiferromagnetic systems from accessible initial paramagnetic states of entropy S/sub i/, applied external uniform constant magnetic field strength H/sub i/, and temperature T/sub i/, to paramagnetic final states of coordinates S/sub f/equivalentS/sub i/, H/sub f/> or approx. =H/sub c/, and T/sub f/
