H. Asakawa et al., EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL-STUDIES OF FINITE-SIZE EFFECTS IN AN S=12 ANTIFERROMAGNETIC HEISENBERG CHAIN/, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 57(14), 1998, pp. 8285-8289
Finite-size effects in a spin-1/2 one-dimensional (1D) Heisenberg anti
ferromagnet (HAF) are studied experimentally and theoretically. The ca
lculated susceptibility is compared with that observed in the quasi-1D
HAF SrCu1-xMgxO2. Excellent agreement between theory and experiment i
s obtained without any adjustable parameters above about 0.02J, where
J is the dominant exchange interaction constant.
