Temperature dependence of the fragmentation in the quantum spin ice Nd2Zr2O7
Recently, a new form of fractionalization has been put forward in spin ice [1]. This phenomenon is described as the fragmentation of the magnetic moment field, resulting in a dual ground state consisting in a fluctuating spin liquid, a so-called Coulomb phase, on top of a magnetic monopole crystal. The aim of the present proposal is to understand in detail this phenomenon and shed light on the formation of the dual fragments as a function of temperature.
