We show here that their claim is in clear contradiction with a wealth of experimental evidence, including our own. Finally, we propose a possible origin for the disagreement between their interpretation of the PAC results and the literature on this subject.5 p.application/pdfeng(c) The American Physical Society, 2007Materials magnèticsPropietats magnètiquesEstructura electrònicaMagnetic materialsMagnetic propertiesElectronic structureinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article549312info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
