Magnetocaloric effect and spin-strain coupling in the spin-nematic state of LiCuVO_{4}
We report on the magnetocaloric effect and ultrasound studies of the frustrated quasi-one-dimensional spin-1/2 compound LiCuVO_{4}, evidencing a spin-nematic state. The magnetic Grüneisen parameter diverges at the transition to the spin-nematic phase, μ_{0}H_{c3}≈40 T, showing quantum criticality ac...
