Abstract

Neutron scattering experiments on a 3He layer on graphite show an unexpected behavior of the collective mode. After having been broadened by Landau damping at intermediate wave vectors, the phonon-roton mode resharpens at large wave vectors and even emerges from the particle-hole continuum at low energies. The measured spectra cannot be explained by a random phase approximation with any static interaction. We show here that the data are well described if dynamic two-pair fluctuations are accounted for. We predict similar effects for electron layers.
