We apply the Lanczos method to a 2-leg ladder with mixed spins of magnitudes $(S_1,S_2)=(1,1/2)$ located at alternating positions along the ladder. The effect of dimerization $\gamma$ is also considered according to two different patterns.…
Partial disorder --the microscopic coexistence of long-range magnetic order and disorder-- is a rare phenomenon, that has been experimental and theoretically reported in some Ising- or easy plane-spin systems, driven by entropic effects at…
