We present a numerical study of magnetic ordering in spin ice on kagome, a two-dimensional lattice of corner-sharing triangles. The magnet has six ground states and the ordering occurs in two stages, as one might expect for a six-state…

The Nd-langasite compound contains planes of magnetic Nd3+ ions on a lattice topologically equivalent to a kagom\'{e} net. The magnetic susceptibility does not reveal any signature of long-range ordering down to 2 K but rather a correlated…
Magnetic, thermodynamic, neutron diffraction and inelastic neutron scattering are used to study spin correlations in the easy-axis XXZ triangular lattice magnet K2Co(SeO3)2. Despite the presence of quasi-2D "supersolid" magnetic order, the…
Magnetic monopoles are hypothesised elementary particles connected by Dirac strings that behave like infinitely thin solenoids. Despite decades of searches, free magnetic monopoles and their Dirac strings have eluded experimental detection,…

Spin ice is a frustrated magnetic system that at low temperatures exhibits a Coulomb phase, a classical spin liquid with topological order and deconfined excitations. This work establishes the presence of a Coulomb phase with coexisting…
We introduce the concept of tunable ideal magnetic dipole scattering, where a nonmagnetic nanoparticle scatters lights as a pure magnetic dipole. High refractive index subwavelength nanoparticles usually support both electric and magnetic…
Most materials freeze when cooled to sufficiently low temperature. We find that magnetic dipoles randomly distributed in a solid matrix condense into a spin liquid with spectral properties on cooling that are the diametric opposite of those…
