Summary: Researchers have discovered tunable magnetic ground states in MnBi6Te10 by using magnetization measurements, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. They have demonstrated an energy gap at the Dirac point on the MnBi2Te4 termination in the ferromagnetic phase, and gapless topological surface states on all terminations in the antiferromagnetic MnBi6Te10. By analyzing the data, they have proposed a conceptual framework to explain how these defects can affect the overall magnetic ground state energy and be used to tune the magnetic topological orders.

Summary: Single crystals of RNi4Cd (R = Ce, Nd, Sm, and Gd - Tm) are grown by Cd flux and their physical properties are investigated. The unit cell volume of RNi4Cd follows a lanthanide contraction, implying a 3+ valence state of rare-earth ions in this series, except for R = Ce. Magnetic susceptibility curves for R = Nd and Gd-Tm follow the Curie-Weiss behavior at high temperatures. The electrical resistivity shows metallic behavior for all RNi4Cd compounds. Only GdNi4Cd indicates an antiferromagnetic ordering below TN = 4.5 K.

Summary: MBT is the first intrinsic magnetic topological insulator and can be made ferromagnetic through specific methods. We studied the magnetic dynamics of several ferromagnetic MBT compounds and found a universal slow relaxation behavior, attributing it to irreversible domain movements. The soft nature of ferromagnetic domains was revealed by our magneto-optical measurements.

Summary: The study reveals the impact of Gd substitution on the structural, optical, photoluminescence, and magnetic properties of Zn1-xGdxO nanocrystals, including crystallinity, band gap energy, emission characteristics, and magnetization behavior. Gd substitution results in a reduction in the average crystallite size of Zn1-xGdxO nanocrystals and confirms the coexistence of paramagnetic and weak ferromagnetic ordering in the presence of Gd.

Summary: In this study, the magnetic diagram of monolayer 1T-CrTe2 under in-plane biaxial strain and on-site Coulomb repulsion is obtained using first-principles calculations. It is found that the magnetic order of monolayer 1T-CrTe2 can change from ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic with strain and electronic correlation. Furthermore, the large exchange anisotropy and higher-order biquadratic interactions are crucial for accurately describing the spin energies in monolayer 1T-CrTe2, while the dependence of magnetocrystalline anisotropy on strain and Coulomb repulsion is explained.

Summary: This article introduces Quintanilla's theorem, which establishes a one-to-one relation between zero-temperature static spin-spin correlators and coupling constants for quantum spin Hamiltonians. The theorem provides a theoretical foundation for learning quantum spin Hamiltonians using spin structure factors as input data. The validity of the theorem is extended to the case of finite-temperature spin structure factors, and it also applies to all types of Hamiltonians expressed as sums of bilinear operators.

Summary: Rare-earth tetraborides RB4 with geometric magnetic frustration and unusual magnetic properties are attracting great interest. In GdB4, the Gd3+ spins align along the ab plane, while in the isomorphic ErB4, the Er3+ spins are confined to the c-axis. Solid solutions of (Gd, Er)B-4 provide a good platform to explore the intricate magnetic behavior in these compounds. Single crystals of Gd1-xErxB4 (x = 0, 0.2, and 0.4) were grown in aluminum flux, showing single-phase materials and a drop in unit cell volume with increasing Er content. Heat capacity measurements revealed a systematic decrease of the Neel temperature (T-N) with increasing Er content.

The study predicts the potential exfoliation of a 1D CrSbSe3 ladder, with a high T-C of up to 170 K, attributed to strong intraladder ferromagnetic exchange interaction and large magnetic anisotropy.

Summary: This study investigates the structural and magnetic properties of pure and M-doped (M: Fe and Cu) MoS2 thin films. It is found that the introduction of Fe atoms into the main structure enhances the magnetization values and gives rise to ferromagnetic characteristics. On the other hand, Cu-doped samples exhibit strong diamagnetic characteristics. The results suggest that doping can significantly influence the magnetic properties of MoS2.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of Ru additive on the crystallographic, magnetic, and electro-catalytic properties of LaBiBaMnO3 manganite for magnetic refrigeration and energy storage systems. The results show that the substitution of Mn with 10% Ru leads to a decrease in Curie temperature, magnetic entropy value, and onset potential for oxygen evolution and reduction reactions. It also increases the electrode activity and current density for oxygen evolution reaction, and improves the ORR efficiency and charge transfer for ORR activity.
