Abstract

We study the low temperature dynamics of the classical Heisenberg antiferromagnet with nearest neighbour interactions on the pyrochlore lattice. We present extensive results for the wavevector and frequency dependence of the dynamical structure factor, obtained from simulations of the precessional dynamics. We also construct a solvable stochastic model for dynamics with conserved magnetisation, which accurately reproduces most features of the precessional results. Spin correlations relax at a rate independent of wavevector and proportional to temperature.
