Abstract
Using the integral equation method, we have got the analytic expressions of the internal energy and specific heat for the one-dimensional Ising model with nearest-neighbour antiferromagnetic repulsion Js and infinitely long-range exponential (Kae-Helfand-type) ferromagnetic attraction J1 acting only on even-numbered neighbours. Under the conditions of J1=1 and Js being 0.05, 0.1 and 0.3 respectively, we have drawn the curves of the internal energy and specific heat varying with temperature in zero external magnetic field, and pointed out its critical phase transition point. Under the conditions of J1=1,Js=0.1, we have drawn the curves of influence of the external magnetic field upon the internal energy and specific heat. Because there exist double solutions for the system under low temperatures, zero or weak external magnetic field and weaker antiferromagnetic interactions, it is inferred that there should exist another quasi-stable state of the model under the given conditions.
