Abstract

We investigated static and dynamical properties in the three-dimensional percolating Heisenberg antiferromagnets, RbMn_c Mg_{1 - c} F₃, with the magnetic concentration close to the percolation threshold, c_P = 0.312, around the superlattice point well below T_N. In neutron diffraction experiment, the wave number dependence of the elastic scattering component was well fitted to q^{- x}. Magnetic fractons were also studied using inelastic neutron scattering, and the observed fractons showed the dispersion relation of q^z. The determined exponents, x = 2.43 ± 0.05 and z = 2.5 ± 0.1, were in good agreement with the fractal dimension (D_f = 2.48).
