Magnetic Ordering NM

Hi everyone,

Silly question, but what does NM in magnetic ordering stand for?

Thanks!

Hi! It’s “non-magnetic”. Not a silly question at all!

What this means is that when Materials Project performed a calculation for this material, the output was a material where all atoms had a zero or near-zero magnetic moment. It does not necessarily preclude the existence of a magnetic ordering in that material.

Thank you!
