Phys. Rev. B 75, 212404 (2007) [4 pages]Quantum spin configurations in Tb2Ti2O7See Also: Erratum Received 21 December 2006; revised 23 February 2007; published 7 June 2007 Low-energy collective angular momentum states of the Tb3+ ions in Tb2Ti2O7 are classified according to the irreducible representations of the octahedral point group. Degeneracy lifting due to the exchange interaction is discussed. Diffuse neutron-scattering intensity patterns are calculated for each collective angular momentum state, and the ground state is inferred by comparing with experiment. © 2007 The American Physical Society URL:
