Abstract

Abstract Approximate critical temperatures of anisotropic ferromagnetic Ising models are calculated through a recently proposed extended variational method in statistical mechanics. Using a linear chain Ising Hamiltonian in an effective field as trial Hamiltonian, quite good results are obtained.

Investigation of Oguchi's procedure applied to the ising model

J. R. Faleiro Ferreira, N. P. Silva

Abstract Approximate critical temperature of the anisotropic ferromagnetic Ising model is calculated using the procedure proposed by Oguchi, with better results than those obtained by the use of Bogolyubov's principle. The calculation is made with linear and double chain trial Hamiltonians.

Correlated-effective-field treatment of the anisotropic Ising ferromagnet: Thermodynamical properties

R. Honmura

Within a new type of correlated-effective-field theory we calculate the effective-field parameters (including their response to external field), critical temperatures, susceptibility, short-range order parameters, and specific heat associated with an anisotropic, square-lattice, spin-\textonehalf{} Ising ferromagnet. The present formalism, which is shown to recover the Bethe-Peierls thermodynamics for the pure $Z$-coordinated-lattice, spin-\textonehalf{} Ising model, yields satisfactory results; in particular, the crossover from a pure Ising ferromagnet on a square lattice to that on a linear chain is reasonably exhibited in the behavior of the susceptibility and the specific heat.

Anisotropic Ising model in a magnetic field: Effective-field theory analysis

Minos A. Neto, Rosana A. dos Anjos, J. Ricardo de Sousa

The anisotropic two-dimensional Ising model in the presence of a magnetic field is studied within two different approaches: the effective-field theory (EFT) with correlation and the Bethe-Peierls (BP) approximation. The model consists of ferromagnetic interaction $({J}_{x})$ in the $x$ direction and antiferromagnetic interaction $({J}_{y})$ in the $y$ direction. The phase diagram in the $T\text{\ensuremath{-}}H$ plane is obtained for the particular case ${J}_{x}={J}_{y}$. Special focus is given in the low-temperature region of the phase diagram, where a first-order phase transition is observed using the mean-field approximation, which is in disagreement with the linear chain approximation (LCA). Our results indicate a second-order phase transition for all values of $H∕J∊[0,2]$, with the presence of a reentrant behavior only observed in the BP approximation in accordance with the results of the LCA and exact solution. The null field critical temperature is an increasing function of $r={J}_{y}∕{J}_{x}$, and in the $r\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$ limit we have found, using BP and EFT, the approximate form ${k}_{B}{T}_{N}∕{J}_{x}\ensuremath{\simeq}A∕\mathrm{ln}(1∕r)$ in accordance with the exact result of Onsager.

Critical Temperature of a Quasi‐One‐Dimensional Ising Model. The Bethe‐Peierls Approximation

M. A. Yurishchev

Abstract The critical temperature of a three‐dimensional spatially anisotropic Ising model is computed by the Bethe‐Peierls method applied to the five‐chain cluster. A comparison is made between the results obtained and calculations based on other approaches.

A variational approach for the free energy

J. R. Faleiro Ferreira, N P Silva

To calculate thermodynamic functions in statistical mechanics the authors propose a new variational approach which has as particular cases the approaches of Bogoliubov, Oguchi and Tsallis-da Silva (1982), but introduces some improvements, mainly in the short-range order effects above the critical temperature. It requires a choice of a trial Hamiltonian that defines an approximate ensemble through which the thermodynamic functions may be calculated. To check the efficiency of their approach they apply it to the ferromagnetic Ising model by using the simplest possible trial Hamiltonian.

A Variational Linear Approach for the Free Energy Applied to the Ising Model

J. R. Faleiro Ferreira

Abstract A recently proposed variational approach is applied to the Ising model. Former results may be improved when a sum of linear chain Hamiltonians is used as an auxiliary Hamiltonian instead of a sum of single particle Hamiltonians.
