Abstract: | We present a new application of the traditional thermodynamic Bethe ansatz to the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic uniform Heisenberg chain and derive exact nonlinear integral equations for just two functions describing the elementary excitations. By using this approach, the magnetic susceptibility chi and specific heat C versus temperature T are calculated to high accuracy for 5x10(-25)=T/J=5. The chi(T) data agree very well at low T with the asymptotically exact theoretical low- T prediction of Lukyanov Nucl. Phys. B522, 533 (1998)]. The unknown coefficients of the second and third lowest-order logarithmic correction terms in Lukyanov's theory for C(T) are estimated from the C(T) data. |
