In condensed matter physics, pressure is frequently used to modify the stability of both electronic states and atomic arrangements. Under isotropic pressure, the intermetallic compound MnP has recently attracted attention for the interplay between pressure-induced superconductivity and complicated magnetic order in the vicinity. By contrast, we use uniaxial stress, a directional type of pressure, to investigate the effect on the magnetism and crystal structure of this compound. An irreversible magnetisation response induced by uniaxial stress is discovered in MnP at uniaxial stress as low as 0.04 GPa. Neutron diffraction experiments reveal that uniaxial stress forms crystal domains that satisfy pseudo-rotational symmetry unique to the MnP-type structure. The structure of the coexisting domains accounts for the stress-induced magnetism. We term this first discovered phenomenon atomic reconstruction (AR) induced by uniaxial stress. Furthermore, our calculation results provide guidelines on the search for AR candidates. AR allows crystal domain engineering to control anisotropic properties of materials, including dielectricity, elasticity, electrical conduction, magnetism and superconductivity. A wide-ranging exploration of potential AR candidates would ensure that crystal domain engineering yields unconventional methods to design functional multi-domain materials for a wide variety of purposes.

The = 1/2 Heisenberg linear chain antiferromagnet is the simplest spin model; nevertheless it serves as a platform for various quantum many-body phenomena. Here, we report the magnetic behavior of a quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet KCuPO $_{4}$ H $_{2}$ O. A long-range commensurate antiferromagnetic order with ordered moment 0.31(1) $mu_{rm{B}}$ per spin occurs at $T_{rm{N}}$ = 11.7(1) K. Above $T_{rm{N}}$ , the inelastic neutron excitation is characterized by a two spinon continuum. The intrachain interaction and interchain interaction are estimated to be 172 K and 4.25(4) K, respectively; thus the ratio of the / = 0.0247(3). At lower energies, below $T_{rm{N}}$ , a spin gap is observed in the dispersive excitations. These results are consistent with characteristics observed in weakly interacting = 1/2 Heisenberg chain system.

= 1/2 Heisenberg $_{1}$ - $_{2}$ chain antiferromagnets have been investigated extensively due to their exotic magnetic states. Here, we report the magnetic behavior of birchite Cd $_{2}$ Cu $_{2}$ (PO $_{4}$ ) $_{2}$ SO $_{4}$ 5H $_{2}$ O and its effective spin model. Experimental studies by magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, heat capacity, and SR measurements indicate the absence of long-range order down to 0.4 K. Theoretical studies reveal that birchite is a model compound for the $_{1}$ - $_{2}$ antiferromagnetic chain: the intrachain interactions $_{1}$ and $_{2}$ are antiferromagnetic and their magnitude is about 100 times larger than the interchain interactions. The magnitude of $_{2}$ is two to three times larger than that of $_{1}$ , thus the spin gap is expected to be only a few percent of that of $_{1}$ . The temperature dependence of the specific heat shows a broad peak at about 1 K ( 0.036 $_{1}$ ), which suggests the presence of a spin gap.
