Single-Crystal Diffuse Neutron Scattering Study of the Dipole-Octupole Quantum Spin-Ice Candidate Ce_{2}Zr_{2}O_{7}: No Apparent Octupolar Correlations Above T=0.05  K

The insulating magnetic pyrochlore Ce_{2}Zr_{2}O_{7} has gained attention as a quantum spin-ice candidate with dipole-octupole character that arises from the crystal-electric-field ground-state doublet for the Ce^{3+} Kramers ion. This dipole-octupole character permits both spin-ice phases based on...
