Onsager's solution is generalized to a finite-size lattice, and experimentally validated analytical expressions for the free energy and its derivatives are computed. The heat capacity at the critical point is shown to grow logarithmically with N. Due to the finite extent of the system the critical temperature can only be determined to some accuracy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-06-08T12:20:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "finite-size 2d ising model", "analytical expressions", "two-dimensional ising model", "thermodynamic characteristics", "onsagers solution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
