Proposal for detecting spin-chirality terms in Mott insulators via resonant inelastic x-ray scattering
We consider the question of whether resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) can be used to detect many-body excitations that are coupled to the spin-chirality terms S[subscript i]·(S[subscript j]×S[subscript k]) in a Mott insulator. We find that while the spin-chirality terms are in general absen...
