Free Energy and Equation of State of Ising-like Magnet Near the Critical Point
arXiv:hep-th/0609105 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysb.2006.07.006
Abstract
The description of a three-dimensional Ising-like magnet in the presence of an external field in the vicinity of the critical point by the collective variables method is proposed. Using the renormalization group transformations, the scaling region size is defined as a function of temperature and field. The obtained expressions for the free energy, equation of state and susceptibility allow one to analyse their dependence on microscopic parameters of the system. The critical exponents of the correlation length and order parameter are calculated as well. The results agree qualitatively with ones obtained within the framework of the parametric representation of the equation of state and Monte-Carlo simulations. The calculations do not involve any parametrization, phenomenological assumptions and adjustable parameters. The approach can be extended to models with a multicomponent order parameter.
