- Author contribution statement
- The spin ice phase is best seen via a plateau of the spin dynamics, before a slowing down with reduced temperature, where emergent states such as monopoles can be observed. I identified this regime to confirm that spin ice dynamics are observed. The plateau is observed at frequencies only accessible by the measurements designed and performed in Cardiff. The determined monopole energy scales were confirmed by neutron measurements at PSI by the Fennell group. I contributed to the manuscript in general by my understanding of monopoles dynamics at different energy scales, and wrote and led the high frequency susceptibility section.
