Quasiparticles are physically motivated mathematical constructs for simplifying the seemingly complicated many-body description of solids. A complete understanding of their dynamics and the nature of the effective interactions between them provides rich information on real material properties at the microscopic level. In this work, we explore the dynamics and interactions of magnon quasiparticles in a ferromagnetic spin-1 Heisenberg chain with easy-axis onsite anisotropy, a model relevant for the explanation of recent terahertz optics experiments on NiNb$_2$O$_6$ [P. Chauhan et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 037203 (2020)], and nonequilibrium dynamics in ultra cold atomic settings [W.C. Chung et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 163203 (2021)]. We build a picture for the properties of clouds of few magnons with the help of exact diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group calculations supported by physically motivated Jastrow wavefunctions. We show how the binding energy of magnons effectively reduces with their number and explain how this energy scale is of direct relevance for dynamical magnetic susceptibility measurements. This understanding is used to make predictions for ultra cold-atomic platforms which are ideally suited to study the thermalization of multimagnon states. We simulate the non-equilibrium dynamics of these chains using the matrix product state based time-evolution block decimation algorithm and explore the dependence of revivals and thermalization on magnon density and easy-axis onsite anisotropy (which controls the strength of effective magnon interactions). We observe behaviors akin to those reported for many-body quantum scars which we explain with an analytic approximation that is accurate in the limit of small anisotropy.

We present a study of the one-dimensional S=1 antiferromagnetic spin chain with large easy plane anisotropy, with special emphasis on field-induced quantum phase transitions. Temperature and magnetic field dependence of magnetization, specific heat, and thermal conductivity is presented using a combination of numerical methods. In addition, the original S=1 model is mapped into the low-energy effective S=1/2 XXZ Heisenberg chain, a model which is exactly solvable using the Bethe ansatz technique. The effectiveness of the mapping is explored, and we show that all considered quantities are in qualitative, and in some cases quantitative, agreement. The thermal conductivity of the considered S=1 model is found to be strongly influenced by the underlying effective description. Furthermore, we elucidate the low-lying electron spin resonance spectrum, based on a semi--analytical Bethe ansatz calculation of the effective S=1/2 model.
NiNb$_{2}$O$_{6}$ is an almost ideal realization of a 1D spin-1 ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain compound with weak unidirectional anisotropy. Using time-domain THz spectroscopy, we measure the low-energy electrodynamic response of NiNb$_{2}$O$_{6}$ as a function of temperature and external magnetic field. At low temperatures, we find a magnon-like spin-excitation, which corresponds to the lowest energy excitation at $qsim0$. At higher temperatures, we unexpectedly observe a temperature-dependent renormalization of the spin-excitation energy, which has a strong dependence on field direction. Using theoretical arguments, exact diagonalizations and finite temperature dynamical Lanczos calculations, we construct a picture of magnon-magnon interactions that naturally explains the observed renormalization. This unique scenario is a consequence of the spin-1 nature and has no analog in the more widely studied spin-1/2 systems.

We present a model compound for the $S$=1/2 ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain composed of the verdazyl-based complex $[$Zn(hfac)$_2]$$[$4-Cl-$o$-Py-V-(4-F)$_2]$. $Ab$ $initio$ MO calculations indicate a predominant ferromagnetic interaction forming an $ S$=1/2 ferromagnetic chain. The magnetic susceptibility and specific heat indicate a phase transition to an AF order owing to the finite interchain couplings. We explain the magnetic susceptibility and magnetization curve above the phase transition temperature based on the $S$=1/2 ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain. The magnetization curve in the ordered phase is described by a conventional AF two-sublattice model. Furthermore, the obtained magnetic specific heat reproduces the almost temperature-independent behavior of the $S$=1/2 ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain. In the low-temperature region, the magnetic specific heat exhibits $sqrt{T}$ dependence, which is attributed to the energy dispersion in the ferromagnetic chain.
A spin-1 Heisenberg model on trimerized Kagome lattice is studied by doing a low-energy bosonic theory in terms of plaquette-triplons defined on its triangular unit-cells. The model has an intra-triangle antiferromagnetic exchange interaction, $J$ (s et to 1), and two inter-triangle couplings, $J^prime>0$ (nearest-neighbor) and $J^{primeprime}$ (next-nearest-neighbor; of both signs). The triplon analysis of this model studies the stability of the trimerized singlet (TS) ground state in the $J^prime$-$J^{primeprime}$ plane. It gives a quantum phase diagram that has two gapless antiferromagnetically (AF) ordered phases separated by the spin-gapped TS phase. The TS ground state is found to be stable on $J^{primeprime}=0$ line (the nearest-neighbor case), and on both sides of it for $J^{primeprime} eq 0$, in an extended region bounded by the critical lines of transition to the gapless AF phases. The gapless phase in the negative $J^{primeprime}$ region has a $sqrt{3}timessqrt{3}$ coplanar $120^circ$-AF order, with all the moments of equal length and relative angles of $120^circ$. The other AF phase, in the positive $J^{primeprime}$ region, is found to exhibit a different coplanar order with ordering wave vector ${bf q}=(0,0)$. Here, two magnetic moments in a triangle are of same magnitude, but shorter than the third. While the angle between the two short moments is $120^circ-2delta$, it is $120^circ+delta$ between a short and the long one. Only when $J^{primeprime}=J^prime$, their magnitudes become equal and the relative-angles $120^circ$. This ${bf q}=(0,0)$ phase has the translational symmetry of the Kagome lattice with isosceles triangular unit-cells. The ratio of the intensities of certain Bragg peaks, $I_{(1,0)}/I_{(0,1)} = 4sin^2{(frac{pi}{6}+delta)}$, presents an experimental measure of the deviation, $delta$, from the $120^circ$ order.

Static magnetic susceptibility chi, ac susceptibility chi_{ac} and specific heat C versus temperature T measurements on polycrystalline samples of In2VO5 and chi and C versus T measurements on the isostructural, nonmagnetic compound In2TiO5 are repor ted. A Curie-Wiess fit to the chi(T) data above 175 K for In2VO5 indicates ferromagnetic exchange between V^{4+} (S = 1/2) moments. Below 150 K the chi(T) data deviate from the Curie-Weiss behavior but there is no signature of any long range magnetic order down to 1.8 K. There is a cusp at 2.8 K in the zero field cooled (ZFC) chi(T) data measured in a magnetic field of 100 Oe and the ZFC and field cooled (FC) data show a bifurcation below this temperature. The frequency dependence of the chi_{ac}(T) data indicate that below 3 K the system is in a spin-glass state. The difference Delta C between the heat capacity of In2VO5 and In2TiO5 shows a broad anomaly peaked at 130 K. The entropy upto 300 K is more than what is expected for S = 1/2 moments. The anomaly in Delta C and the extra entropy suggests that there may be a structural change below 130 K in In2VO5.
