    Abstract

    The room-temperature spin wave spectrum in MnFe2O4 has been investigated by means of inelastic neutron scattering using the time-of-flight technique. The acoustical branch could be obtained in the [100]- and the [110]-directions up to nearly the Brillouin zone boundary. Values for the effective exchange parameters JAB and JBB have been derived. In both symmetry directions some low lying phonon branches could also be observed.
