Field-induced Multi-Q⃗ States in a Pyrochlore Heisenberg Magnet

In this talk, I will present a recent work on the J1-J3b classical Heisenberg model on the pyrochlore lattice in the presence of a magnetic field. We construct exact ground states of the model, which are non-coplanar multi-Q⃗ spin configurations with a large magnetic unit cell. Using linear spin wave theory, we show that entropy favours these multi-Q⃗ states at low temperatures in high magnetic fields. This is confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations, which we also use to map out a phase diagram. Lastly, we calculate the zero-temperature dynamical structure factor. Besides the usual Goldstone modes associated with the ordering Q⃗s, we find high-intensity gapless modes at momenta where there are no Bragg peaks.

This talk is part of the Theory of Condensed Matter series.
