Néel to spin-Peierls transition in a quasi-one-dimensional Heisenberg model coupled to bond phonons

The zero and finite temperature spin-Peierls transitions in a quasi-one-dimensional spin- 1/ 2 Heisenberg model coupled to adiabatic bond phonons is investigated using the stochastic series expansion (SSE) quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method. The quantum phase transition from a gapless Neel state...
