A magnetic model is proposed for describing the incommensurate I phase of spin-Peierls systems. Based on the harmonicity of the lattice distortion, its main ingredient is that the distortion of the lattice adjusts to the average…
The effects of magnetic and non-magnetic impurities in spin-Peierls systems are investigated allowing for lattice relaxation and quantum fluctuations. We show that, in isolated chains, strong bonds form next to impurities, leading to the…
It is shown that nonadiabatic fluctuations of the soliton lattice in the spin-Peierls system CuGeO_3 lead to an important reduction of the NMR line widths. These fluctuations are the zero-point motion of the massless phasonic excitations.…

We study theoretically the lattice instability in the spin gap systems under magnetic field. With the magnetic field larger than a critical value h_{c1}, the spin gap is collapsed and the magnetization arises. We found that the lattice…
We investigate the effects of impurities on the nature of the phase transition in frustrated magnets, in d=4-epsilon dimensions. For sufficiently small values of the number of spin components, we find no physically relevant stable fixed…
Spin noise spectroscopic study of spin dynamics in a zero magnetic field is commonly frustrated by the dominating 1/f noise. We show that in a pi-pulse modulated magnetic field, spin noise spectrum centered one-half of the field modulation…

The high temperature limit of interacting spins is usually not associated with ordering or critical phenomena. Nevertheless, spontaneous fluctuations of a local spin polarization at equilibrium have nontrivial dynamics even in this limit.…

We consider a two-layer Heisenberg antiferromagnet which can be either in the N\'{e}el-ordered or in the disordered phase at $T=0$, depending on the ratio of the intra- and interlayer exchange constants. We reduce the problem to an…
