Neutron determination of magnon dispersion relations for isotropic disordered magnets
Abstract
To determine the neutron inelastic coherent scattering (NIS) cross-section for disordered magnets a system of equations of motion for the Green functions (GF) related to the localized-spin correlation-functions S R+S R′-, S R-S R′-, S RzS R′- has been exploited. The formula for the magnon dispersion relations derived here covers a number of spin structures and depends on the configuration averages of the local fields. It should be emphasized that in particular it works for transverse antiferromagnets.
