The authors present numerical simulation studies on the two-dimensional easy-plane classical ferromagnetic Heisenberg model with fourfold in-plane symmetry breaking. Continuum limit equations of motion are obtained and some non-linear particular solutions are discussed. Their simulation data are compared with experimental data obtained for Rb2CrCl4. They find evidence for two transition temperatures in this model.
