In the three-dimensional Heisenberg spin glass in a random field, we study the properties of the inherent structures that are obtained by an instantaneous cooling from infinite temperature. For a not too large field the density of states g(ω) develops localized soft plastic modes and reaches zero as ω^4 (for large fields a gap appears). When we perturb the system adding a force along the softest mode, one reaches very similar minima of the energy, separated by small barriers, that appear to be good candidates for classical two-level systems. 2023-06-18T06:49:56Z 2023-06-18T06:49:56Z 2015-12-23 journal article 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.267205 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/24341 http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.267205 http://journals.aps.org eng CRIPHERASY (247328) FIS2012-35719-C02 GDRE 224 open access American Physical Society
