Abstract
Many cooperative systems are characterized by a single order parameter and a second order phase transition at a critical point. Their thermodynamical behaviour can be simulated by a spin half Ising model with positive dipolar interactions. For instance [1]:
-
magnetic ordering in a uniaxial or isotropic system;
-
phase separation in a binary mixture;
-
condensation of a simple fluid (Lee and Yang);
-
freezing of a liquid (Lennard-Jones and Devonshire);
-
suprafluid ordering (London, Tisza [2]);
-
magnetic ordering in a two-singlet system (Bleaney, Cooper);
-
ferroelectric ordering in KDP (De Gennes);
-
ordering in molecular crystals: NH4Cl, NaNO2, ....
