Abstract
We study, numerically, the charge neutral excitations (magnetorotons) in fractional quantum Hall systems, concentrating on the two Jain states near quarter filling, $\ensuremath{\nu}=2/7$ and $\ensuremath{\nu}=2/9$, and the $\ensuremath{\nu}=1/4$ Fermi-liquid state itself. In contrast to the $\ensuremath{\nu}=1/3$ states and the Jain states near half filling, on each of the two Jain states $\ensuremath{\nu}=2/7$ and $\ensuremath{\nu}=2/9$ the graviton spectral densities show two, instead of one, magnetoroton peaks. The magnetorotons have spin 2 and have opposite chiralities in the $\ensuremath{\nu}=2/7$ state and the same chirality in the $\ensuremath{\nu}=2/9$ state. We also provide a numerical verification of a sum rule relating the guiding center spin $\overline{s}$ with the spectral densities of the stress tensor.
