New Magnetic Excitations in the Spin-Density-Wave of Chromium
Low-energy magnetic excitations of chromium have been reinvestigated with a
single-Q crystal using neutron scattering technique. In the transverse
spin-density-wave phase a new type of well-defined magnetic excitation is found
around (0,0,1) with a weak dispersion perpendicular to the wavevector of the
incommensurate structure. The magnetic excitation has an energy gap of E ~ 4
meV and at (0,0,1) exactly corresponds to the Fincher mode previously studied
only along the incommensurate wavevector.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
