Abstract

It is expected that the specific heat of the SU(2)-invariant 1D Heisenberg antiferromagnet of spin S is linear to the temperature at low T with the linear coefficient gamma s being a function of field H. The author's main result is that limH to O gamma s=1/3(1+ square root S Gamma (S)(e/S)s/ pi ) not= limT to O limH to O gamma s=2S/(1+S). This extends the previous result for S=1/2 to other spin values. The author also provides an approximate interpolation formula between these two limits as a function of H/T for very small H and T.
