Abstract
The singular behavior of the thermodynamic quantities in the vicinity of the phase transition is specified by so-called critical indices, which describe the power-type dependence of these quantities on temperature t = T — T c . The critical indices are introduced for the susceptibility x, heat capacity C, order parameter η, etc. and are determined from the relations
The first two indices have been introduced for temperatures above and below T c , the index β has been determined evidently only for T < T C .
