  2. Quantum Heisenberg model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Heisenberg_model

    The quantum Heisenberg model, developed by Werner Heisenberg, is a statistical mechanical model used in the study of critical points and phase transitions of magnetic systems, in which the spins of the magnetic systems are treated quantum mechanically. It is related to the prototypical Ising model, where at each site of a lattice, a spin ...

  3. Ising model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ising_model

    The Ising model (or Lenz–Ising model), named after the physicists Ernst Ising and Wilhelm Lenz, is a mathematical model of ferromagnetism in statistical mechanics. The model consists of discrete variables that represent magnetic dipole moments of atomic "spins" that can be in one of two states (+1 or −1). The spins are arranged in a graph ...

  4. Exchange interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_interaction

    The form of Eq. (14) corresponds identically to the Ising model of ferromagnetism except that in the Ising model, the dot product of the two spin angular momenta is replaced by the scalar product S ij S ji. The Ising model was invented by Wilhelm Lenz in 1920 and solved for the one-dimensional case by his doctoral student Ernst Ising in 1925.

  5. Classical Heisenberg model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_Heisenberg_model

    This equation is called the continuous classical Heisenberg ferromagnet equation or, more shortly, the Heisenberg model and is integrable in the sense of soliton theory. It admits several integrable and nonintegrable generalizations like the Landau-Lifshitz equation , the Ishimori equation , and so on.

    When combined with finite size scaling, estimating the ground state energy and critical exponents of the 1D transverse-field Ising model. [5] Studying various properties of the 2D Heisenberg model in a magnetic field, including antiferromagnetism and spin-wave velocity. [6] Studying the Drude weight of the 2D Hubbard model. [7]

  7. Critical exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_exponent

    Critical exponent. Critical exponents describe the behavior of physical quantities near continuous phase transitions. It is believed, though not proven, that they are universal, i.e. they do not depend on the details of the physical system, but only on some of its general features. For instance, for ferromagnetic systems at thermal equilibrium ...

  8. Ising critical exponents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ising_critical_exponents

    This article lists the critical exponents of the ferromagnetic transition in the Ising model. In statistical physics, the Ising model is the simplest system exhibiting a continuous phase transition with a scalar order parameter and symmetry. The critical exponents of the transition are universal values and characterize the singular properties ...

  9. Transverse-field Ising model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse-field_Ising_model

    The transverse field Ising model is a quantum version of the classical Ising model.It features a lattice with nearest neighbour interactions determined by the alignment or anti-alignment of spin projections along the axis, as well as an external magnetic field perpendicular to the axis (without loss of generality, along the axis) which creates an energetic bias for one x-axis spin direction ...
