Название: Critical behavior of a spherical model with a free surface
Автор: Michael N. Barber
Аннотация:
Critical phenomena ind-dimensional ferromagnetic spherical models on hypercubic lattices with free surfaces are studied. The surface specific heat and surface susceptibilities are obtained. The exponents characterizing the divergence of these surface quantities at the bulk critical temperature are found to satisfy recently proposed scaling relations. The variation of the susceptibility with distance from the surface is also discussed. The author's recent scaling theory for surface properties is investigated in detail, and found to give an exact representation for the free energy of a three-dimensional spherical model of finite thickness in finite bulk and surface magnetic fields. A scaling form for the surface free energy is derived.
