The data are compared to calculations in the framework of lattice-driven and superexchange-driven orbital ordering models. A superexchange model in which the experimentally observed modes are attributed to two-orbiton excitations yields the best description of the data.}, author={Ulrich and Ament and Ghiringhelli and Braicovich and Sala and Pezzotta and Schmitt and Khaliullin and Brink and Roth and et al.}, year={2009}, month={Aug} }
