Description:
Article More than 40 years ago Berezinskii, Kosterlitz and Thouless (BKT) predicted a state of matter characterized by topological order driven by the binding of vortex-antivortex pairs. Here Tutsch et al. report experimental evidences of BKT physics in a two-dimensional spin-dimer system. Nature Communications doi: 10.1038/ncomms6169 Authors: U. Tutsch, B. Wolf, S. Wessel, L.
