An extra superexchange interaction is assumed between next-nearest-neighbors on a simple cubic lattice, which are induced by a diluted ion. The critical properties are obtained by Monte Carlo simulations using a hybrid algorithm, single histograms procedures and finite-size scaling techniques. Quite good fits to the experimental results of the ordering temperature are obtained, namely its much less rapidly decreasing with dilution than predicted by the standard diluted 3$d$ XY model, and the change in curvature around $86\\%$ of the magnetic Fe[Se$_2$CN(C$_2$H$_5$)$_2$]$_2$Cl compound.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-09-27T18:55:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "monte carlo simulations", "site-diluted 3d xy model", "superexchange interaction", "diluted magnets", "site-diluted classical xy model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
