Probing anomalous longitudinal fluctuations of the interacting Bose gas via Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons — •Andreas Kreisel, Nils Hasselmann, and Peter Kopietz — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Frankfurt, Max-von-Laue Strasse 1, 60438 Frankfurt, Germany
The emergence of a finite staggered magnetization in quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets subject to a uniform magnetic field can be viewed as Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons. Using non-perturbative results for the infrared behavior of the interacting Bose gas[1], we present exact results for the staggered spin-spin correlation functions of quantum antiferromagnets in a magnetic field at zero temperature. In particular, we show that in dimensions 1 < D ≤ 3 the longitudinal dynamic structure factor S∥ (q→ , ω ) describing staggered spin fluctuations in the direction of the staggered magnetization exhibits a critical continuum, whose weight can be controlled experimentally by varying the magnetic field [2].
