Published: April 2023

Recent experiments have shown an indication of a hydrodynamic magnon behavior in ultrapure ferromagnetic insulators; however, its direct observation is still lacking. Here, we derive a set of coupled hydrodynamic equations and study the thermal and spin conductivities for such a magnon fluid. We reveal the drastic breakdown of the magnonic Wiedemann-Franz law as a hallmark of the hydrodynamics regime, which will become key evidence for the experimental realization of an emergent hydrodynamic magnon behavior. Therefore, our results pave the way toward the direct observation of magnon fluids.

Thermal Conductivity through the Quantum Critical Point in YbRh_{2}Si_{2} at Very Low Temperature.

Phys Rev Lett

July 2015

Université Grenoble Alpes, INAC-SPSMS, F-38000 Grenoble, France and CEA, INAC-SPSMS, F-38000 Grenoble, France.

The thermal conductivity of YbRh_{2}Si_{2} has been measured down to very low temperatures under field in the basal plane. An additional channel for heat transport appears below 30 mK, both in the antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic states, respectively, below and above the critical field suppressing the magnetic order. This excludes antiferromagnetic magnons as the origin of this additional contribution to thermal conductivity.
