16. A related result is that despite the quantization of total spin in the ground state, the finite temperature (T) response of an infinite system to a uniform applied magnetic field need not have the Curie value; the latter is the response of gapless continuum of low energy states, and not of the ground state manifold alone. The theory predicts a spin susceptibility χ=C/T, with CS(S+1)/3. Numerical efforts to extract C will be discussed elsewhere [K.H. Höglund and A.W. Sandvik, cond-mat/0701472]; here we focus on impurity effects at T=0.
