Chiral RKKY interaction in Pr[subscript 2]Ir[subscript 2]O[subscript 7]

Motivated by the potential chiral spin liquid in the metallic spin ice Pr[subscript 2]Ir[subscript 2]O[subscript 7], we consider how such a chiral state might be selected from the spin-ice manifold. We propose that chiral fluctuations of the conducting Ir moments promote ferrochiral couplings betwee...
