Abstract

Magnetic susceptibility and inelastic neutron scattering experiments have been performed in the nearly ideal one-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet with spin one, Ni(C2H8N2)2NO2ClO4. The experimental results are consistent with the recent theoretical predictions for a quantum energy gap between the ground state and the first excited states.
