Monte Carlo study of four-spinon dynamic structure function in antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model

Authors

Abstract: Using Monte Carlo integration methods, we describe the behavior of the exact four-spinon dynamic structure function

S_{4}

in the antiferromagnetic spin 1/2 Heisenberg quantum spin chain as a function of the neutron energy

o m e g a

and momentum transfer

k

. We also determine the four-spinon continuum, the extent of the region in the

(k, o m e g a)

plane outside which

S_{4}

is identically zero. In each case, the behavior of

S_{4}

is shown to be consistent with the four-spinon continuum and compared to the one of the exact two-spinon dynamic structure function

S_{2}

. Overall shape similarity is noted.
