We consider a spin-1/2 XX chain with three-spin interactions which is equivalent to a system of noninteracting spinless fermions.We examine some dynamic quantities of the spin model.In particular, we calculate analytically the dynamic transverse (zz) structure factor which is governed by a two-fermion excitation continuum. Moreover, we compute numerically the dynamic xx structure factor which is a many-fermion dynamic quantity.We illustrate how the three-spin interactions manifest themselves in the dynamic probes.
