  2. Potts model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potts_model

    A function V gives interaction energy between a set of spins; it is not the Hamiltonian, but is used to build it. The argument to the function V is an element s ∈ Q Z, that is, an infinite string of spins. In the above example, the function V just picked out two spins out of the infinite string: the values s 0 and s 1.

  3. Solid solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_solution

    a solid solution mixes with others to form a new solution The phase diagram in the above diagram displays an alloy of two metals which forms a solid solution at all relative concentrations of the two species. In this case, the pure phase of each element is of the same crystal structure, and the similar properties of the two elements allow for ...

  4. Classical Heisenberg model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_Heisenberg_model

    The general mathematical formalism used to describe and solve the Heisenberg model and certain generalizations is developed in the article on the Potts model.; In the continuum limit the Heisenberg model (2) gives the following equation of motion

  5. Metal spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_spinning

    Metal spinning, also known as spin forming or spinning or metal turning most commonly, is a metalworking process by which a disc or tube of metal is rotated at high speed and formed into an axially symmetric part. [1]

  6. Nearly free electron model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nearly_free_electron_model

    Dispersion relation for the 2D nearly free electron model as a function of the underlying crystalline structure. The nearly free electron model is a modification of the free-electron gas model which includes a weak periodic perturbation meant to model the interaction between the conduction electrons and the ions in a crystalline solid.

  7. Spin chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_chain

    The spin of the ith site can interact with the spins from the i - 1 and i + 1 sites. A spin chain is a type of model in statistical physics. Spin chains were originally formulated to model magnetic systems, which typically consist of particles with magnetic spin located at fixed sites on a lattice. A prototypical example is the quantum ...

  8. Spin glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_glass

    Spin glass when contrasted with a ferromagnet is defined as "disordered" magnetic state in which spins are aligned randomly or without a regular pattern and the couplings too are random. [1] A spin glass should not be confused with a "spin-on glass". The latter is a thin film, usually based on SiO 2, which is applied via spin coating.

  9. Spinel group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinel_group

    An example of an inverse spinel is Fe 3 O 4, if the Fe 2+ (A 2+) ions are d 6 high-spin and the Fe 3+ (B 3+) ions are d 5 high-spin. In addition, intermediate cases exist where the cation distribution can be described as (A 1− x B x )[A x ⁄ 2 B 1− x ⁄ 2 ] 2 O 4 , where parentheses () and brackets [] are used to denote tetrahedral and ...
