Abstract

The static critical properties of classical, isotropic Heisenberg ferromagnets have been studied numerically. Using an improved cluster algorithm we performed extensive Monte Carlo simulations on L×L×L simple cubic and body-centered cubic systems with L≤40 over a temperature range covering the critical region. Temperature dependences of thermodynamic quantities were determined with an optimized multiple-histogram method, and both critical temperatures and critical exponents were extracted from finite-size scaling of several different thermodynamic quantities. It was found that within their respective error bars the critical exponents for both ferromagnets agree with each other and with field theoretical predictions.
