Abstract
Strongly disordered ferromagnetic alloys which exhibit magnetic inhomogeneities are described in the frame of a generalized Ginzburg-Landau theory by averaging the Ginzburg-Landau energy of a subsystem with a definite Curie temperature over the Curie temperature of all subsystems of the inhomogeneous magnetic system. It is shown that this leads to the rough scaling of a smooth phase transition. Furthermore the distribution function of the Curie temperature is derived from the experimental data of the specific heat, the volume thermal expansion coefficient and the compressibility.
