Gibbs resampling transitions and structured fast-measurement protocols

Daan Timmers, Benedikt Placke, Siddharth A. Parameswaran

Quantum Gibbs sampling algorithms generalize classical Markov chain Monte Carlo (cMCMC) methods, and prepare thermal states on quantum computers by implementing local dissipative e…

Two-Peak Heat Capacity Accounts for Entropy and Ground State Access in the Dipole-Octupole Pyrochlore CeHfO

E. M. Smith, A. Fitterman, R. Schäfer +18

Magnetic heat capacity measurements of a high-quality single crystal of the dipole-octupole pyrochlore CeHfO down to a temperature of K are reported. These s…

Single Crystal Diffuse Neutron Scattering Study of the Dipole-Octupole Quantum Spin Ice Candidate CeZrO: No Apparent Octupolar Correlations Above K

E. M. Smith, R. Schäfer, J. Dudemaine +8

The insulating magnetic pyrochlore CeZrO has gained attention as a quantum spin ice candidate with dipole-octupole character arising from the crystal electric field gro…

Ising Fracton Spin Liquid on the Honeycomb Lattice

Benedikt Placke, Owen Benton, Roderich Moessner

We study a classical Ising model on the honeycomb lattice with local two-body interactions and present strong evidence that at low temperature it realizes a higher-rank Coulomb liq…

Quantum Spin Ice Response to a Magnetic Field in the Dipole-Octupole Pyrochlore CeZrO

E. M. Smith, J. Dudemaine, B. Placke +17

We report new heat capacity measurements on single crystal CeZrO down to 0.1 K in a magnetic field along the direction. These new measurements s…

Dipolar spin ice regime proximate to an all-in-all-out Néel ground state in the dipolar-octupolar pyrochlore CeSnO

D. R. Yahne, B. Placke, R. Schäfer +11

The dipolar-octupolar (DO) pyrochlores, RMO (R = Ce, Sm, Nd), are key players in the search for realizable novel quantum spin liquid (QSL) states as a large parameter s…
