Abstract:
We report low temperature electron spin resonance experimental and theoretical studies of an archetype S=1/2 strong-rung spin ladder material (C_{5}H_{12}N)_{2}CuBr_{4}. Unexpected dynamics is detected deep in the Tomonaga-Luttinger spin liquid regime. Close to the point where the system is half-magnetized (and believed to be equivalent to a gapless easy plane chain in zero field) we observed orientation-dependent spin gap and anomalous g-factor values. Field theoretical analysis demonstrates that the observed low-energy excitation modes in magnetized (C_{5}H_{12}N)_{2}CuBr_{4} are solitonic excitations caused by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction presence.

As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are...
