"Exotic criticality in the dimerized spin-1 X X Z chain with single-ion anisotropy" by Satoshi Ejima, Tomoki Yamaguchi, Fabian H. L. Essler, Florian Lange,
Yukinori Ohta and Holger Fehske has received the Select label. Warm congratulations to the authors!



In this very well written paper, the authors provide a comprehensive study of the phase diagram of the dimerized spin-1 XXZ chain with single-ion anisotropy. In addition, the authors were able to validate their results by an extensive field-theory analysis as well as DMRG, which ensures a quantitatively correct phase diagram. Overall, this paper will not only be important as a theoretical contribution for theoretical quantum physics, but also for experimental studies concerning spin chain compounds.
