Abstract
We use numerical linked-cluster expansions to compute the specific heat C(T) and entropy S(T) of a quantum spin ice Hamiltonian for Yb2Ti2O7 using anisotropic exchange interactions, recently determined from inelastic neutron scattering measurements, and find good agreement with experimental calorimetric data. This vindicates Yb2Ti2O7 as a model quantum spin ice. We find that in the perturbative weak quantum regime, such a system has a ferrimagnetic ordered ground state, with two peaks in C(T): a Schottky anomaly signaling the paramagnetic to spin ice crossover, followed at a lower temperature by a sharp peak accompanying a first-order phase transition to the ordered state. We suggest that the two C(T) features observed in Yb2Ti2O7 are associated with the same physics. Spin excitations in this regime consist of weakly confined spinon-antispinon pairs. We anticipate that the conventional ground state with exotic quantum dynamics will prove a prevalent characteristic of many real quantum spin ice materials.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
