modes due to their bilinear coupling:
, 1.431, 1.525, 1.717 (doubly degenerate), 2.469, 2.634, 2.977, 2.983, 2.991 (doubly degenerate) meV. Inclusion of even higher harmonics such as
modes increases the number of the modes and eventually broadens the peaks. The series of
-function peaks are replaced with the sum of Gaussians broadened with the width 0.05 meV. Points with dashed lines denote the integrated intensity experimentally observed in the THz spectroscopy [

. We note that the tilting of the spiral planes crucially changes the signals of electromagnons.
