Pseudo-Goldstone magnons in the frustrated S=3/2 Heisenberg helimagnet ZnCr2Se4 with a pyrochlore magnetic sublattice
Low-energy spin excitations in any long-range ordered magnetic system in the
absence of magnetocrystalline anisotropy are gapless Goldstone modes emanating
from the ordering wave vectors. In helimagnets, these modes hybridize into the
so-called helimagnon excitations. Here we employ neutron spectroscopy supported
by theoretical calculations to investigate the magnetic excitation spectrum of
the isotropic Heisenberg helimagnet ZnCr2Se4 with a cubic spinel structure, in
which spin-3/2 magnetic Cr3+ ions are arranged in a geometrically frustrated
pyrochlore sublattice. Apart from the conventional Goldstone mode emanating
from the (0 0 q) ordering vector, low-energy magnetic excitations in the
single-domain proper-screw spiral phase show soft helimagnon modes with a small
energy gap of ~0.17 meV, emerging from two orthogonal wave vectors (q 0 0) and
(0 q 0) where no magnetic Bragg peaks are present. We term them
pseudo-Goldstone magnons, as they appear gapless within linear spin-wave theory
and only acquire a finite gap due to higher-order quantum-fluctuation
corrections. Our results are likely universal for a broad class of symmetric
helimagnets, opening up a new way of studying weak magnon-magnon interactions
with accessible spectroscopic methods.Comment: V3: Final version to be published in Phys. Rev.
Magnonic Weyl states in Cu2OSeO3
The multiferroic ferrimagnet CuOSeO with a chiral crystal structure
attracted a lot of recent attention due to the emergence of magnetic skyrmion
order in this material. Here, the topological properties of its magnon
excitations are systematically investigated by linear spin-wave theory and
inelastic neutron scattering. When considering Heisenberg exchange interactions
only, two degenerate Weyl magnon nodes with topological charges 2 are
observed at high-symmetry points. Each Weyl point splits into two as the
symmetry of the system is further reduced by including into consideration the
nearest-neighbor Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction, crucial for obtaining an
accurate fit to the experimental spin-wave spectrum. The predicted topological
properties are verified by surface state and Chern number analysis.
Additionally, we predict that a measurable thermal Hall conductivity can be
associated with the emergence of the Weyl points, the position of which can be
tuned by changing the crystal symmetry of the material
Magnetic-field dependence of low-energy magnons, anisotropic heat conduction, and spontaneous relaxation of magnetic domains in the cubic helimagnet ZnCr2Se4
Anisotropic low-temperature properties of the cubic spinel helimagnet
ZnCr2Se4 in the single-domain spin-spiral state are investigated by a
combination of neutron scattering, thermal conductivity, ultrasound velocity,
and dilatometry measurements. In an applied magnetic field, neutron
spectroscopy shows a complex and nonmonotonic evolution of the spin-wave
spectrum across the quantum-critical point that separates the spin-spiral phase
from the field-polarized ferromagnetic phase at high fields. A tiny spin gap of
the pseudo-Goldstone magnon mode, observed at wave vectors that are
structurally equivalent but orthogonal to the propagation vector of the spin
helix, vanishes at this quantum critical point, restoring the cubic symmetry in
the magnetic subsystem. The anisotropy imposed by the spin helix has only a
minor influence on the lattice structure and sound velocity but has a much
stronger effect on the heat conductivities measured parallel and perpendicular
to the magnetic propagation vector. The thermal transport is anisotropic at T <
2 K, highly sensitive to an external magnetic field, and likely results
directly from magnonic heat conduction. We also report long-time thermal
relaxation phenomena, revealed by capacitive dilatometry, which are due to
magnetic domain motion related to the destruction of the single-domain magnetic
state, initially stabilized in the sample by the application and removal of
magnetic field. Our results can be generalized to a broad class of helimagnetic
materials in which a discrete lattice symmetry is spontaneously broken by the
magnetic order.Comment: 13 pages, 8 figures + Supplemental Materia

Understanding the foreign policy of autocratic actors: ideology or pragmatism? Russia and the Tymoshenko trial as a case study
While the literature on the autocratic regimes has been rapidly growing in the last years, there still exists a research gap in this field: which impact do autocratic regimes have on the regime transition in the neighbouring countries? The literature on autocracies has demonstrated that autocratic political leaders tend to support each other. This article argues that the external influence of an autocracy may be more complex. The article analyses the case of Russia's international standing in relation to the trial of Yulia Tymoshenko. Using detailed process tracing, it has been shown that in terms of the Russian position, pragmatic goals may undermine ideological goals. Thus, while the main objective of Russia is to ensure the stability of gas contracts, the unintended consequences of its actions undermine the consolidation of autocratic regime in Ukraine. The article builds on the literature on regime transition, autocracy, and international relations
