In quasi-2D quantum magnets the ratio of Neel temperature $T_text N$ to Curie-Weiss temperature $Theta_text{CW}$ is frequently used as an empirical criterion to judge the strength of frustration. In this work we investigate how these quantities are related in the canonical quasi-2D frustrated square or triangular $J_1$-$J_2$ model. Using the self-consistent Tyablikov approach for calculating $T_text N$ we show their dependence on the frustration control parameter $J_2/J_1$ in the whole Neel and columnar antiferromagnetic phase region. We also discuss approximate analytical results. In addition the field dependence of $T_text N(H)$ and the associated possible reentrance behavior of the ordered moment due to quantum fluctuations is investigated. These results are directly applicable to a class of quasi-2D oxovanadate antiferromagnets. We give clear criteria to judge under which conditions the empirical frustration ratio $f=Theta_text{CW}/T_text N$ may be used as measure of frustration strength in the quasi-2D quantum magnets.

In-field DC and AC magnetization measurements were carried out on a sigma-phase Fe55Re45 intermetallic compound aimed at determination of the magnetic phase diagram in the H-T plane. Field cooled, M_FC, and zero-field cooled, M_ZFC, DC magnetization curves were measured in the magnetic field, H, up to 1200 Oe. AC magnetic susceptibility measurements were carried out at a constant frequency of 1465 Hz under DC fields up to H=500 Oe. The obtained results provide evidences for re-entrant magnetism in the investigated sample. The magnetic phase diagrams in the H-T plane have been outlined based on characteristic temperatures determined from the DC and AC measurements. The phase diagrams are similar yet not identical. The main difference is that in the DC diagram constructed there are two cross-over transitions within the strong-irreversibility spin-glass state, whereas in the AC susceptibility based diagram only one transition is observed. The border lines (irreversibility, cross-over) can be described in terms of the power laws.
We report results of muon spin relaxation and rotation ($mu$SR) experiments on the spin-liquid candidate~YbMgGaO$_{4}$. No static magnetism $gtrsim 0.003mu_B$ per Yb ion, ordered or disordered, is observed down to 22~mK, a factor of two lower in temperature than previous measurements. Persistent (temperature-independent) spin dynamics are observed up to 0.20~K and at least 1~kOe, thus extending previous zero-field $mu$SR results over a substantial region of the $H$-$T$ phase diagram. Knight shift measurements in a 10-kOe transverse field reveal two lines with nearly equal amplitudes. Inhomogeneous muon depolarization in a longitudinal field, previously characterized by stretched-exponential relaxation due to spatial inhomogeneity, is fit equally well with two exponentials, also of equal amplitudes. We attribute these results to two interstitial muon sites in the unit cell, rather than disorder or other spatial distribution. Further evidence for this attribution is found from agreement between the ratio of the two measured relaxation rates and calculated mean-square local Yb$^{3+}$ dipolar fields at candidate muon sites. Zero-field data can be understood as a combination of two-exponential dynamic relaxation and quasistatic nuclear dipolar fields.
Comprehensive studies of magnetic properties of GdCr3(BO3)4 single crystal have been carried out. The integrals of intrachain and interchain exchange interactions in the chromium subsystem have been determined and the strength of Cr-Gd exchange interaction has been estimated. The values of the exchange field and the effective magnetic anisotropy field of GdCr3(BO3)4 have been estimated. The electric polarization along the a axis in the longitudinal geometry of the experiment has been detected. Correlations between the electric polarization and the magnetization of the studied compound have been found. The spin-reorientation phase transition in the magnetically ordered state has been found. This transition exists for the external magnetic field applied along any crystallographic direction and the transition field depends weakly on the direction of the field. The nature of the spin-reorientation phase transition has been discussed. Magnetic phase diagram has been constructed and spin configurations for the low-field and high-field phases have been proposed.
Comprehensive magnetic-field-temperature ($H$-$T$) phase diagram of solid oxygen including the $theta$ phase is discussed in the context of the ultrahigh-field measurement and the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) measurement. The problems originating from the short duration of the pulse field, non-equilibrium condition and MCEs, are pointed out and dealt with. The obtained phase diagram manifests the entropy relation between the phases as $S_theta sim S_alpha<S_beta<<S_gamma$.
The quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic Ising-like compound BaCo2V2O8 has been shown to be describable by the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory in its gapless phase induced by a magnetic field applied along the Ising axis. Above 3.9 T, this leads to an exotic field-induced low-temperature magnetic order, made of a longitudinal incommensurate spin-density wave, stabilized by weak interchain interactions. By single-crystal neutron diffraction we explore the destabilization of this phase at a higher magnetic field. We evidence a transition at around 8.5 T towards a more conventional magnetic structure with antiferromagnetic components in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The phase diagram boundaries and the nature of this second field-induced phase are discussed with respect to previous results obtained by means of nuclear magnetic resonance and electron spin resonance, and in the framework of the simple model based on the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory, which obviously has to be refined in this complex system.
