Nuclear spin assisted quantum tunnelling of magnetic monopoles in spin ice

Spin ice compounds have localised excitations that behave as magnetic monopoles which move by hopping from site to site, creating a chain of spins. Here the authors show that the hyperfine coupling between electron and nuclear spins is an important part of the mechanism underlying monopole motion.
