Abstract

Low energy properties of non-metallic magnets can be described by a spin Hamiltonian of the form

$$\mathcal{H} = \sum\limits_{{ < \vec{R}\vec{R}\prime > }} {{{J}_{{\vec{R}\vec{R}\prime }}}{{{\vec{S}}}_{{\vec{R}}}} \cdot {{{\vec{S}}}_{{\vec{R}\prime }}} + \sum\limits_{{\vec{R}}} {[G({{{\vec{S}}}_{{\vec{R}}}}) - g{{\mu }_{B}}{{{\vec{S}}}_{{\vec{R}}}} \cdot \vec{H}],} }$$
(1)

where the double summation visits each spin pair once.

Neutron scattering data reported in this paper mostly show the quantity \( \tilde{I}\left( {\vec{Q},\omega } \right) = \left( {1/2} \right)\sum\nolimits_{{\alpha \beta }} {\left( {{\delta_{{\alpha \beta }}} - {{\hat{Q}}_{\alpha }}{{\hat{Q}}_{\beta }}} \right)} {S^{{\alpha \beta }}}\left( {\vec{Q},\omega } \right) \) which is proportional to the scattering cross section of Eq.
