Unveiling hidden multipolar orders with magnetostriction
Higher-order multipolar phases are unusual states that can form in correlated materials and are difficult to observe as they do not directly couple to conventional probes. Patri et al. theoretically show that angle-dependent magnetostriction measurements can probe quadrupolar and octupolar ordering....
