Abstract
We present the results for a model calculation of resonant two-magnon Raman scattering in a spin density wave antiferromagnet. The resonant enhancement of the two-magnon intensity is obtained from a microscopic analysis of the photon-magnon coupling vertex. By combining magnon-ma gnon interactions with 'triple resonance' phenomena in the vertex func tion the resulting intensity line shape is found to closely resemble t he measured two-magnon Raman signal in antiferromagnetic cuprates.
