Thermal and field-induced transitions in ferroquadrupolar Kondo systems

Recent experiments have examined the impact of a magnetic field on ferroquadrupolar orders in the intermetallic Kondo material PrTi_{2}Al_{20}. Motivated by this, we use extensive Monte Carlo simulations to study a diamond lattice XY model of non-Kramers pseudospin-1/2 Pr^{3+} moments which cruciall...
