A spin-liquid with pinch-line singularities on the pyrochlore lattice
Neutron scattering measurements of spin-ice materials contain signature pinch-point singularities, demonstrating the existence of an emergent electromagnetic gauge field. Here, the authors propose a system in which correlations manifest in pinch lines, which may have already been observed experiment...

Neutron scattering measurements of spin-ice materials contain signature pinch-point singularities, demonstrating the existence of an emergent electromagnetic gauge field. Here, the authors propose a system in which correlations manifest in pinch lines, which may have already been observed experimentally. |
