The dynamic spin pair correlations $< S_{l+n}^{\\mu}(t) S_l^{\\mu} > , (\\mu=x,z)$, the dynamic structure factors $S^{\\mu}(q,\\omega)$, and the intermediate structure factors $I^{\\mu}(q,t)$ are calculated for arbitrary temperature T. It is found, that for all T, $S^{z}(q,\\omega)$ is mainly concentrated on the region $|\\omega| < \\varepsilon_2(q)$, where $\\varepsilon_2(q)$ is the upper boundary of the two-spinon continuum, although excited states corresponding to a much broader frequency spectrum contribute. This is also true for the Haldane-Shastry model and the frustrated Heisenberg model. The intermediate structure factors $I^{\\mu}(q,t)$ for $\\Delta \\neq 0$ show exponential decay for high T and large q. Within the accessible time range, the time-dependent spin correlation functions do not display the long-time signatures of spin diffusion.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-11-11T09:51:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "arbitrary temperature", "dynamic correlations", "complete diagonalization", "xxz chains", "intermediate structure factors" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
