The magnetic properties of iron-arsenides are investigated using the LSDA+U approach. In addition to one high moment state, we find that a positive U also produces two low moment states with m~0.4 $\mu_{B}$ and m~1.0 $\mu_{B}$. The…
The triangular lattice antiferromagnet (TLAF) has been the standard paradigm of frustrated magnetism for several decades. The most common magnetic ordering in insulating TLAFs is the 120 structure. However, a new triple-Q chiral ordering…
