We investigate the finite-temperature properties of the J1-J2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field. We focus on the highly frustrated regime around J2 ≈ J1/2. The H-T phase diagram is investigated with particular emphasis on the finite-temperature transition into the “up-up-up-down” state that is stabilized by thermal and quantum fluctuations and manifests itself as a plateau at one half of the saturation magnetization in the quantum case. Furthermore, we discuss the enhanced magnetocaloric effect associated to the ground-state degeneracy that arises at the saturation field for J2=J1/2. Computations for the spin-1/2 system are carried out using finite-temperature Lanczos and quantum typicality approaches.
