Evidence for a Jeff=0 ground state and defect-induced spin glass behavior in the pyrochlore osmate Y2Os2O7

We present AC and DC magnetometry, heat capacity, muon spin relaxation (μSR), and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) studies of the pyrochlore osmate Y2Os2O7. Consistent with previous results, we observe a small Curie-Weiss effective moment of approximately 0.4 μB and spin freezing at a temp...
