Conclusions

FT simulations of Cv show good agreement with experimental data when symmetry breaking DM term is of the order of Dz~5K. G.A.Jorge, R.Stern, M. Jaime, N. Harrison, J. Bonča, S. El Shawish, C.D Batista, H.A. Dabkowska, and B.D. Gaulin,PRB 71, 092403, (2005).

ESR spectra can be reproduced only with finite value of symmetry breaking Dz – open question (structural phase transition, phonons). S. El Shwaish, J. Bonca, C.D.Batista, and I. Sega, PRB 71, 014413 (2005).

Good agreement with neutron-scattering data. S. El Shawish, J. Bonča, and I. Sega, PRB 72,184409 (2005).

Results a finite doping show filling up of the spin gap.
