Ss. Aplesnin, The study of magnetic properties of the quasi-one-dimensianal spin-1/2 antiferromagnet by Monte-Carlo method, PHYS LOW-D, 7-8, 2000, pp. 37-46
The thermodynamic quantities, two- and four-spin correlation functions as w
ell as the correlation radius for weakly coupled antiferromagnetic spin cha
ins with S = 1/2 are calculated using the mean-field approximation for the
interchain coupling (J(2)) for longitudinal and transverse spin components
by quantum Monte Carlo method. Results for the staggered magnetization and
Neel temperature are in agreement with general scaling arguments. The value
of triplet DeltaS(z) =1 gp in the spectrum of excitations is estimated. Th
e transverse staggered field was found to induce an additional maximum in t
he correlation radius of the four spin correlation function around T/J(1) a
pproximate to [0.05 divided by 0.075), J(2)/J(1) > 0.03.
