30. The ground-state configuration of the spin ice model is formed by satisfying conditions analogous to Paulinga's "ice rules:" every tetrahedron has both two spins pointing into and two spins pointing out of the tetrahedron. This (under)constraint on the system again results in a macroscopically large number of degenerate ground states.
