Structural phase transitions in geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets
We study geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets with magnetoelastic coupling. Frustration in these systems may be relieved by a structural transition to a low temperature phase with reduced lattice symmetry. We examine the statistical mechanics of this transition and the effects on it of quenched...
