Critical spin liquid versus valence-bond glass in a triangular-lattice organic antiferromagnet

The low temperature magnetic properties of organic Mott insulator κ-(ET)2-Cu2(CN)3 a quantum spin liquid candidate is notoriously difficult to understand. Here, a model based on defect spins is introduced that allows to describe results of complementary experiments on the same theoretical footing.
