Abstract

Whilst strong coupling between structure and magnetism is a signature of many of the Fe-based superconductors, no evidence for this has been reported in the normal state of FeSe. Here, the authors demonstrate strong coupling between nematicity and magnetism in FeSe under applied pressure.
