Precision Low Temperature Calorimetry and Susceptibility of Magnetic Pyrochlores
(University of Waterloo, 2018-09-19)Spin-ice models feature the same statistical disorder as water ice, which is identified as the source of zero-point entropy. Gapped topological excitations with properties of monopoles are associated with the violation of ... -
Searching for the Magnetic Interactions in the Rare Earth Pyrochlore Oxide Yb₂Ti₂O₇
(University of Waterloo, 2011-07-20)Various experiments on Yb₂Ti₂O₇ have shown evidence of strange magnetic behaviour at low temperatures. Specific heat measurements on powder samples of Yb₂Ti₂O₇ show evidence of a sharp peak, indicating the occurence of a ...
