Abstract
Using an effective Heisenberg model for clusters the spin-wave spectru m is calculated by direct diagonalization. The inclusion of a nonunifo rm magnetization profile at zero temperature, nonuniform exchange inte ractions as a result of structural relaxations, longer-range interacti ons, and of magnetic surface anisotropy have been studied. Very small effects are found on the thermal magnetic properties relative to those predicted for the simple nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model by Hendrik sen, Linderoth, and Lindgard [J. Phys. C 31, 5675 (1993); Phys. Rev. B 48, 7259 (1993)].
