Ground-State Candidate for the Dipolar Kagome Ising Antiferromagnet

Abstract

We have investigated the low-temperature thermodynamic properties of the dipolar kagome Ising antiferromagnet using at-equilibrium Monte Carlo simulations, in the quest for the ground-state manifold. In spite of the limitations of a single spin-flip approach, we managed to identify certain ordering patterns in the low-temperature regime and we propose a candidate for this unknown state. This novel configuration presents some intriguing features and passes several test-criteria, making it a very likely choice for the dipolar long-range order of this kagome Ising antiferromagnet.
