Abstract:We used a Monte Carlo method to analyze a planar Ising model taking into account a ferromagnetic interaction with next neighbors. We found that independent of the value of the additional interaction, the character of singularity of the heat capacity did not change. Namely, at the critical point the heat capacity has a logarithmic singularity. We obtained a semi-theoretical formula relating the value of the critical temperature with the value of the additional ferromagnetic interaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
