Thermal Evolution of Dirac Magnons in the Honeycomb Ferromagnet CrBr_{3}.

CrBr_{3} is an excellent realization of the two-dimensional honeycomb ferromagnet, which offers a bosonic equivalent of graphene with Dirac magnons and topological character. We perform inelastic neutron scattering measurements using state-of-the-art instrumentation to update 50-year-old data, thereby enabling a definitive comparison both with recent experimental claims of a significant gap at the Dirac point and with theoretical predictions for thermal magnon renormalization. We demonstrate that CrBr_{3} has next-neighbor J_{2} and J_{3} interactions approximately 5% of J_{1}, an ideal Dirac magnon dispersion at the K point, and the associated signature of isospin winding.

Exchange Interactions Mediated by Nonmagnetic Cations in Double Perovskites.

Establishing the physical mechanism governing exchange interactions is fundamental for exploring exotic phases such as quantum spin liquids in real materials. In this Letter, we address exchange interactions in Sr_{2}CuTe_{x}W_{1-x}O_{6}, a series of double perovskites that realize a spin-1/2 square lattice and are suggested to harbor a quantum spin liquid ground state arising from the random distribution of nonmagnetic ions. Our ab initio multireference configuration interaction calculations show that replacing Te atoms with W atoms changes the dominant couplings from nearest to next-nearest neighbor due to the crucial role of unoccupied states of the nonmagnetic ions in the super-superexchange mechanism.

Importance of Axial Symmetry in Elucidating Lanthanide-Transition Metal Interactions.

In this paper, we experimentally study and model the electron donating character of an axial diamagnetic Pd ion in four metalloligated lanthanide complexes of formula [PPh][Ln{Pd(SAc)}] (SAc = thioacetate, Ln = Tb, Dy, Ho, and Er). A global model encompassing inelastic neutron scattering, torque magnetometry, and dc magnetometry allows to precisely determine the energy level structure of the complexes. Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance reveals a less donating character of Pd compared to the previously reported isostructural Pt-based complexes.

Spin correlations of quantum spin liquid and quadrupole-ordered states of Tb Ti O.

Spin correlations of the frustrated pyrochlore oxide Tb Ti O have been investigated by using inelastic neutron scattering on single-crystalline samples ( = -0.007, 0.000, and 0.
