Topological Route to New and Unusual Coulomb Spin Liquids

Owen Benton, Roderich Moessner

Coulomb spin liquids are topological magnetic states obeying an emergent Gauss' law. Little distinction has been made between different kinds of Coulomb liquids. Here we show how a…

Exactly solvable spin-1/2 XYZ models with highly-degenerate, partially ordered, ground states

Grgur Palle, Owen Benton

Exactly solvable models play a special role in Condensed Matter physics, serving as secure theoretical starting points for investigation of new phenomena. Changlani et al. [Phys. R…

Hierarchy of energy scales and field-tunable order by disorder in dipolar-octupolar pyrochlores

Benedikt Placke, Roderich Moessner, Owen Benton

Dipolar-octupolar pyrochlore magnets in a strong external magnet field applied in the [110] direction are known to form a `chain' state, with subextensive degeneracy. Magnetic mome…

Ground state phase diagram of dipolar-octupolar pyrochlores

Owen Benton

The dipolar-octupolar pyrochlore oxides RMO (R=Ce, Sm, Nd) represent an important opportunity in the search for three dimensional Quantum Spin Liquid (QSL) ground state…

Order out of a Coulomb phase and Higgs transtion: frustrated transverse interactions of Nd2Zr2O7

J. Xu, Owen Benton, A. T. M. N. Islam +3

The pyrochlore material NdZrO with an "all-in-all-out" (AIAO) magnetic order shows novel quantum moment fragmentation with gapped flat dynamical spin ice modes. The par…

Anisotropic exchange Hamiltonian, magnetic phase diagram and domain inversion of NdZrO

J. Xu, Owen Benton, V. K. Anand +8

We present thermodynamic and neutron scattering measurements on the quantum spin ice candidate NdZrO. The parameterization of the anisotropic exchange Hamiltonian is re…
