Abstract

An unusual crossover mechanism has been discovered by numerical investigation of the dispersion spectrum of Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chains with various spin values in a magnetic field. This result is reflected in novel behavior of static properties such as the integrated intensity. A study of various excitation gaps using finite chain calculations extended by quantum Monte Carlo studies indicates unusual behaviour in the T=0 magnetization isotherms.
