Anisotropic three-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnets in a field — •Georg Bannasch and Walter Selke — Institut für Theoretische Physik, RWTH Aachen

Three-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnets, the xxz-model as well as variants, in a field are investigated. Based on ground state considerations and Monte Carlo techniques, the role of biconical fluctuations and structures is studied. Results are compared to findings on two-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnets [1,2,3,4].
