Journal ArticleDOI
The theory of equilibrium critical phenomena
TL;DR: The theory of critical phenomena in systems at equilibrium is reviewed at an introductory level with special emphasis on the values of the critical point exponents α, β, γ,..., and their interrelations as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linear Magnetic Chains with Anisotropic Coupling
Jill C. Bonner,Michael E. Fisher +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the anisotropic Hamiltonian behavior of linear chains and rings was studied for finite size and dispersion laws, of the energy, entropy, and specific heat, of magnetization and susceptibilities, and of the pair correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical Exponents in 3.99 Dimensions
TL;DR: In this paper, the critical exponents for dimension $d = 4, where d is the dimension of the dimension in the dimension space of the model, with the exponent of the critical exponent being $1+\frac{1.6} for an Ising-like model and $1 +\frac {1.5} for a more complex model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetism in One-Dimensional Systems—The Heisenberg Model for Infinite Spin
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the free energy, susceptibility, and correlation functions for a linear chain of N spins with nearest-neighbor isotropic Heisenberg coupling can be calculated explicitly in the (classical) limit of infinite spin.
Journal ArticleDOI
The renormalization group in the theory of critical behavior
TL;DR: In this paper, the renormalization group approach to the theory of critical behavior is reviewed at an introductory level with emphasis on magnetic systems, including the dependence of critical exponents above Tc on dimensionality d = 4−e.
