English abstract:
The magnetic excitations in multiferroic TbMnO3 have been investigated by inelastic scattering of polarized and unpolarized neutrons in the ferroelectric cycloidal and in the paraelectric collinear phase. The polarization analysis of the excitations at the incommensurate magnetic zone center allows one to determine the characters of three distinct modes. In particular we may identify those modes which may directly couple to the ferroelectric polarization. We find a rather complex magnon dispersion with branches split throughout the Brillouin zone, which should be a generic characteristic of elliptical cycloidal order.
