Nonlocal Correlation in Heisenberg Spin Models
  In this paper we investigate the nonlocal correlation (beyond entanglement) captured by measurement induced nonlocality and geometric quantum discord for a pair of interacting spin-1/2 particles at thermal equilibrium. It is shown that both the measures are identical in measuring the correlation. We show the possibility of nonlocal correlation between the spins without entanglement, which ceases to exist only for the maximal mixture of product bases. We also observe that while interaction between the spins is responsible for the enhancement of correlation, this non-classicality decreases with the intervention of external magnetic field.
