Phase boundaries near critical end points. III. Corrections to scaling and spherical models

Márcia C. Barbosa

Thermodynamics in the vicinity of a critical end point is studied. Phenomenological arguments are used to show the presence of further critical nonanalyticities beyond the leading-order singularities found in papers I and II. These contributions are related to the universal correction-to-scaling features of the bulk thermodynamics on the critical \ensuremath{\lambda} line. The predictions are checked on exactly soluble spherical models with short- and long-range interactions.

Phase boundaries near critical end points. I. Thermodynamics and universality

Michael Ellis Fisher, Márcia C. Barbosa

The vicinity of a critical end point is analyzed in order to reveal singularities arising in the form of the first-order phase boundary to the noncritical phase. Phenomenological arguments are presented and critically assessed that directly relate the nonanalytic behavior of the phase boundary to universal features of the bulk thermodynamics on the associated critical line. Explicit values are given for universal amplitude ratios describing the boundary for various types of criticality.

Universality and interfaces at critical end points

Michael Ellis Fisher, Paul J. Upton

At a critical end point a critical phase coexists with a noncritical phase \ensuremath{\alpha} and singularities arise beyond those on the associated critical line. New universal amplitude ratios are defined for the shape of the \ensuremath{\alpha}-phase boundary and for the noncritical surface tensions near end points. A postulated correspondence with wall/surface criticality leads to predictions for general dimension d that are exact at (and near) d=2 and for d\ensuremath{\ge}4 (where mean-field theory applies) and yield experimentally testable estimates for d=3.
