This allows one to indirectly measure the discord through neutron scattering, as well as calorimetric or magnetometric experiments. Using the available experimental data, we found the discord for a number of binuclear Heisenberg substances with both antiferro- and ferromagnetic interactions. For the dimerized antiferromagnet copper nitrate Cu(NO_3)_2*2.5H_2O, the three independent experimental methods named above lead to a discord of approximately 0.2-0.3 bit/dimer at a temperature of 4 K. We also determined the temperature behavior of discord for hydrated and anhydrous copper acetates, as well as for the ferromagnetic binuclear copper acetate complex [Cu_2L(OAc)]*6H_2O, where L is a ligand.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-04-07T09:25:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.65.Ud", "03.67.-a", "75.10.Jm", "75.50.Xx" ], "keywords": [ "quantum discord", "spin-cluster materials", "ferromagnetic binuclear copper acetate complex", "binuclear heisenberg substances", "spin-spin correlation function" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2011, "month": "Jul", "volume": 84, "number": 2, "pages": "024418" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011PhRvB..84b4418Y" } } }
