Abstract
The influence of quenched nonmagnetic impurities on phase transitions and critical phenomena in the 3D Potts model with the spin state number q = 4 is studied using the Monte Carlo method. Systems with the linear size L = 20–32 and spin concentrations p = 1.00, 0.90, 0.65 are considered. The fourth order Binder cumulant method is used to demonstrate that in the strongly diluted regime, a phase transition of the second kind is observed in this model for the spin concentration p = 0.65, and a phase transition of the first kind is observed for the pure (p = 1.00) and weakly diluted (p = 0.90) models. The theory of finite-dimensional scaling is used to calculate the static critical parameters of heat capacity α, susceptibility γ, magnetization β, and correlation radius ν.
