Low-Temperature Behavior of the Specific Heat for an N-Spin Ferromagnetic Material in an External Magnetic Field
Abstract
A ferromagnetic material in the absence of an external magnetic field shows the peak of its specific heat in low temperature, called the Schottky anomaly, which is vital in understanding the low-energy structure of a given material. A general formula for the low-temperature behavior of the specific heat of an N-spin ferromagnetic material in an external magnetic field (the generalized Schottky anomaly) is obtained for the first time. Also, as a representative example of ferromagnetic materials in an external magnetic field, the low-temperature behavior of the specific heat for the Ising ferromagnet is studied.
Keywords
