We present a detailed experimental and theoretical study of the frustrated s = 1/2 spin-chain compound Linarite, PbCuSO4(OH)2, with competing nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor exchange interactions. Our experimental data are described using various theoretical approaches to obtain the magnetic exchange interactions resulting in a frustration ratio α ≈ 0.36 close to the 1D critical point [1]. ESR and NMR at elevated temperatures indicate a highly frustrated system with the onset of magnetic correlations far above the long range magnetic ordering temperature TN = 2.8 K. Below TN the ground state was found to be an elliptical, incommensurate spin spiral [2]. Linarite shows a multiplicity of magnetic field induced phases which could be identified by neutron- and NMR-measurements.
