Modeling of the crystal field, magnetoelastic interactions and random lattice deformations in ${\text{Pr}}_2{\text{Zr}}_2{\text{O}}_7$

We present the results of simulations of the spectral and thermodynamic properties of frustrated ${\text{Pr}}_2{\text{Zr}}_2{\text{O}}_7$ crystals using the distribution function of random strains induced by point defects in an elastically anisotropic continuum.
