Magnetic phase transitions in spin-fluctuation theory
N. B. Melnikov, G. V. Paradezhenko Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia
Abstract:
A first-order phase transition is a characteristic feature of the Gaussian approximation in spin-fluctuation theory. We propose a method for taking the fourth-order terms of the free energy expansion into account using partial averaging. In the example of the Ising model, we show that renormalization of the magnetic susceptibility leads to a second-order phase transition, which is experimentally observed in metals. We use the parameter substitution method to compute the temperature dependence at high temperatures.
Keywords:
functional integral method, Stratonovich–Hubbard transformation, partial averaging, renormalization.
