Low-temperature properties of quasi-one-dimensional magnetic systems with an XY interaction
E. V. Ezerskaya
Abstract
The effect of the interaction between XY chains on the spectrum of low-lying excitations of quasi-one-dimensional magnetic systems has been investigated. It has been shown that the energies of two-magnon bound states of a tube of three XY chains lie beyond the continuous spectrum for sufficiently high values of the total quasimomentum while the energies of the analogous states for a strip containing the same number of chains always belong to the continuous spectrum.
