The second order dense ferromagnetic-ferromagnetic phase transition
Abstract
The fcc spin-1 Ising (BEG) model has a dense ferromagnetic (df) ground state instead of the ferromagnetic ground state at low temperature region and exhibits the dense ferromagnetic (df) - ferromagnetic (F) phase transition for d=D/J=2.9, k=K/J=-0.5, =L/J=0 and h=H/J=0. The critical behavior of the dense ferromagnetic (df) - ferromagnetic (F) phase transition has been investigated using the cellular automaton cooling and heating algorithms. The universality class and the type of the dense ferromagnetic (df) - ferromagnetic (F) phase transition have been researched within the framework of the finite - size scaling, the power law relations and the probability distribution. The results show that the dense ferromagnetic- ferromagnetic phase transition is of the second order and the model shows universal second order Ising critical behavior at d=2.9 parameter value through k=-0.5 line.
