We consider an extended spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the triangular lattice with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions and an additional scalar chiral term that gives rise to a rich phase diagram comprising putative quantum spin-liquid phases alongside magnetically ordered states with a coplanar 120∘ order, stripe order and a noncoplanar tetrahedral order. Using large-scale matrix-product-state simulations, we obtain the spectral responses in distinct ordered and liquid regimes of the phase diagram and review our results in the light of analytical predictions such as mean-field theory and spin-wave calculations. We also discuss finite-size effects and the role of different cylinder geometries for the spectral function.
