Ghost modes and continuum scattering in the dimerized distorted kagome lattice antiferromagnet Rb 2 Cu 3 SnF 12

High-intensity pulsed neutron scattering reveals a new set of magnetic excitations in the pinwheel valence-bond solid state of the distorted kagome lattice antiferromagnet Rb2Cu3SnF12. The polarization of the dominant dispersive modes (2meV<â ω<7meV) is determined and found consistent with a d...
