Magnon S(Q, E) Model

Back to Contents.

The magnon S(Q, E) model can be used by selecting "Magnetic Dynamics" as "Model Source" in the Resolution Convolution dialog. In case the plugin providing the magnon model is not installed (i.e, when "Magnetic Dynamics" is not listed as possible model source), it can be built using the instructions here.

This module needs a configuration file to be put in the "File" edit box. These configuration files are generated by the magnon calculator dialog which is available from the main menu of Takin (not the Resolution Convolution dialog) via "Tools" -> "Magnetic Dynamics..."

A tutorial which demonstrates how to use the magnon model can be found here.

The calculations of this module are based on the mathematical framework given in this paper.
