A clear thermal Hall signal ($\kappa_{xy}$) was observed in the spin liquid phase of the $S=1/2$ kagom\'e antiferromagnet Ca kapellasite (CaCu$_3$(OH)$_6$Cl$_2\cdot 0.6$H$_2$O). We found that $\kappa_{xy}$ is well reproduced, both…
In a ferromagnet, the spin excitations are the well-studied magnons. In frustrated quantum magnets, long-range magnetic order fails to develop despite a large exchange coupling between the spins. In contrast to the magnons in conventional…
