We have shown that the observed large reduction of the effective moment and the drastic violation of the Curie-Weiss law in Na2V3O7 (Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 (2003) 167202) is caused by conventional crystal-field interactions and the…
We claim that any approach neglecting the spin-orbit coupling and the orbital magnetism is not physically adequate for 3d oxides, including NiO, and that in reaching "excellent agreement" in a Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 126406 (2004) paper too…
