Аналітичний опис критичної поведінки тривимірного одновісного магнетика в зовнішньому полі з виділенням системи відліку

Abstract

The critical behavior of systems belonging to the universality class of the three-dimensional Ising model has been studied theoretically. A three-dimensional Ising-like system with exponentially decreasing interaction potential and in the presence of a homogeneous external field was considered in the framework of the collective variables method. A specific feature in the calculation of the partition function and the free energy of a uniaxial magnet consists in singling out a reference system. The role of the latter is played by the molecular-field Hamiltonian. A method to describe the critical behavior with the use of a singled out reference system is developed on the basis of a non-Gaussian (quartic) distribution of order-parameter fluctuations (the p4 model).
