Single crystals of EuNiGe$_3$ crystallizing in the non-centrosymmetric BaNiSn$_3$-type structure have been grown using In flux, enabling us to explore the anisotropic magnetic properties which was not possible with previously reported polycrystalline samples. The EuNiGe$_3$ single crystalline sample is found to order antiferromagnetically at 13.2 K as revealed from the magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity and electrical resistivity data. The low temperature magnetization M(H) is distinctly different for field parallel to ${ab}$-plane and $c$-axis; the ${ab}$-plane magnetization varies nearly linearly with field before the occurrence of an induced ferromagnetic phase (spin-flip) at 6.2 Tesla; on the other hand M(H) along the $c$-axis is accompanied by two metamagnetic transitions followed by a spin-flip at 4.1 T. A model including anisotropic exchange and dipole-dipole interactions reproduces the main features of magnetization plots but falls short of full representation. (H,T) phase diagrams have been constructed for the field applied along the principal directions. From the $^{151}$Eu M{o}ssbauer spectra, we determine that the 13.2 K transition leads to an incommensurate antiferromagnetic intermediate phase followed by a transition near 10.5 K to a commensurate antiferromagnetic configuration.

In the search for spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnets, the mineral volborthite has recently been the subject of experimental studies [Hiroi et al.,2001]. It has been suggested that the magnetic properties of this material are described by a spin-1/2 Hei
senberg model on the kagome lattice with spatially anisotropic exchange couplings. We report on investigations of the Sp(N) symmetric generalisation of this model in the large N limit. We obtain a detailed description of the dependence of possible ground states on the anisotropy and on the spin length S. A fairly rich phase diagram with a ferrimagnetic phase, incommensurate phases with and without long range order and a decoupled chain phase emerges.
We present present a quantitative experimental investigation of the scalar chiral magnetic order with in $rm{Nd_3Sb_3Mg_2O_{14}}$. Static magnetization reveals a net ferromagnetic ground state, and inelastic neutron scattering from the hyperfine coup
led nuclear spin reveals a local ordered moment of 1.76(6) $mu_B$, just 61(2)% of the saturated moment size. The experiments exclude static disorder as the source of the reduced moment. A 38(1) $mu$eV gap in the magnetic excitation spectrum inferred from heat capacity rules out thermal fluctuations and suggests a multipolar explanation for the moment reduction. We compare $rm{Nd_3Sb_3Mg_2O_{14}}$ to Nd pyrochlores and show that it is close to a moment fragmented state.
The Nd-langasite compound contains planes of magnetic Nd3+ ions on a lattice topologically equivalent to a kagom{e} net. The magnetic susceptibility does not reveal any signature of long-range ordering down to 2 K but rather a correlated paramagnetis
m with significant antiferromagnetic interactions between the Nd and a single-ion anisotropy due to crystal field effect. Inelastic neutron scattering on Nd-langasite powder and single-crystal allowed to probe its very peculiar low temperature dynamical magnetic correlations. They present unusual dispersive features and are broadly localized in wave-vector Q revealing a structure factor associated to characteristics short range-correlations between the magnetic atoms. From comparison with theoretical calculations, these results are interpreted as a possible experimental observation of a spin liquid state in an anisotropic kagom{e} antiferromagnet.
Magnetization measurements have been performed on single-crystalline Fe$_{1.1}$Te in pulsed magnetic fields $mathbf{H}perpmathbf{c}$ up to 53 T and temperatures from 4.2 to 65 K. At $T=4.2$ K, a non-reversible reorientation of the antiferromagnetic m
oments is observed at $mu_0H_R=48$ T as the pulsed field is on the rise. No anomaly is observed at $H_R$ during the fall of the field and, as long as the temperature is unchanged, during both rises and falls of additional field pulses. The transition at $H_R$ is reactivated if the sample is warmed up above the N{e}el temperature $T_Nsimeq60$ K and cooled down again. The magnetic field-temperature phase diagram of Fe$_{1.1}$Te in $mathbf{H}perpmathbf{c}$ is also investigated. We present the temperature dependence of $H_R$, as well as that of the antiferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic borderline $H_c$ in temperatures above 40 K.
Applying the correlated electronic structure method based on density functional theory plus the Hubbard $U$ interaction, we have investigated the tetragonal scheelite structure Mott insulator KOsO$_4$, whose $e_g^1$ configuration should be affected o
nly slightly by spin-orbit couping (SOC). The method reproduces the observed antiferromagnetic Mott insulating state, populating the Os $d_{z^2}$ majority orbital. The quarter-filled $e_g$ manifold is characterized by a symmetry breaking due to the tetragonal structure, and the Os ion shows a crystal field splitting $Delta_{cf}$ = 1.7 eV from the $t_{2g}$ complex, which is relatively small considering the high formal oxidation state Os$^{7+}$. The small magnetocrystalline anisotropy before including correlation (i.e., in the metallic state) is increased by more than an order of magnitude in the Mott-insulating state, a result of a strong interplay between large SOC and a strong correlation. In contrast to conventional wisdom that the $e_g$ complex will not support orbital magnetism, we find that for the easy axis [100] direction the substantial Os orbital moment $M_Lapprox-0.2 mu_B$ compensates half of the Os spin moment $M_S$ = 0.4$mu_B$. The origin of the orbital moment is analyzed and understood in terms of additional spin-orbital lowering of symmetry, and beyond that due to structural distortion, for magnetization along [100]. Further interpretation is assisted by analysis of the spin density and the Wannier function with SOC included.
