Pathway to the ground state in Kagome spin ice HoAgGe — •Philipp Gegenwart — Lehrstuhl für Experimentalphysik VI, Universität Augsburg

HoAgGe represents the first crystalline realization of Kagome spin ice and displays striking fractionalized plateau states in magnetic and transport experiments [1,2]. We report single crystal neutron diffuse scattering to map the pathway from paramagnetism via partial order to the Kagome spin ice ground state [3]. The symmetry-broken nature of the latter is evidenced by the nonlinear magnetic susceptibility.
