Ferroically Ordered Magnetic Octupoles in d-Wave Altermagnets
We show that time-reversal symmetry-broken, centrosymmetric antiferromagnets with nonrelativistic spin splitting of d-wave symmetry—the so-called d-wave altermagnets—are conveniently described in terms of the ferroic ordering of magnetic octupoles. The magnetic octupoles are the lowest-order ferroic...
