Biconical critical dynamics

Abstract

A complete two loop renormalization group calculation of the multicritical dynamics at a tetracritical or bicritical point in anisotropic antiferromagnets in an external magnetic field is performed. Although strong scaling for the two order parameters (OPs) perpendicular and parallel to the field is restored as found earlier, in the experimentally accessible region the effective dynamical exponents for the relaxation of the OPs remain different since their equal asymptotic values are not reached.
