Spiral magnetic order and pressure-induced superconductivity in transition metal compounds

The relationship between magnetic order and superconductivity is one of the central issues in unconventional superconductors. Here, Wang et al. report a spiral spin order in MnP and trace its pressure evolution towards superconducting order, suggesting variable spiral pitch as a mechanism to tune sp...
