Mixing of magnetic and phononic excitations in incommensurate spin-Peierls systems

We analyze the excitation spectra of a spin-phonon coupled chain in the presence of a soliton. This is taken as a microscopic model of a spin-Peierls material placed in a high magnetic field. We show, by using a semiclassical approximation in the bosonized representation of the spins, that a trapped...
