Резюме:We study the low temperature dynamics of the classical Heisenberg antiferromagnet with nearest neighbor interaction on the frustrated pyrochlore lattice. We present extensive results for the wave vector and frequency dependence of the dynamical structure factor, obtained from simulations of the precessional dynamics. We also construct a solvable stochastic model for dynamics with conserved magnetization, which accurately reproduces most features of the precessional results. Spin correlations relax at a rate independent of the wave vector and proportional to the temperature.
