    "description": "The discovery of chiral helical magnetism (CHM) in Cr<sub>1/3</sub>NbS<sub>2</sub> and the stabilization of a chiral soliton lattice (CSL) has attracted considerable interest in view of their potential technological applications. However, there is an ongoing debate regarding whether the sister compound, Mn<sub>1/3</sub>NbS<sub>2</sub>, which shares the same crystal structure, exhibits similar nontrivial properties, which rely on the stabilization of the lack of inversion symmetry at the magnetic ion. In this study, we conduct a comprehensive investigation of the magnetically ordered states of both compounds, using <sup>53</sup>Cr, <sup>55</sup>Mn and <sup>93</sup>Nb nuclear magnetic resonance.  Our results, supported by density functional  calculations, detect in a high quality single crystal of Cr<sub>1/3</sub>NbS<sub>2</sub> all the signatures of the monoaxial CHM in  a magnetic field, identifying it as a textbook NMR case. The detailed understanding of this prototypic  behavior provides a reference for Mn<sub>1/3</sub>NbS<sub>2</sub>.\nDespite the much larger density of specific defects in this second single crystal, we confirm the presence of a CHM phase in the Mn compound, characterized by a very large critical field for the forced ferromagnetic phase (~ 10 T for H || c).",
