In this paper we present highly accurate numerical results of the determination of the critical point of the antiferromagnetic Ising model in a nonzero magnetic field for the honeycomb lattice, including the critical fugacity of a nearest-neighbor exclusion lattice gas. We compute the correlation length of the Ising model using a transfer matrix approach, and locate the critical point from the data on the correlation lengths using finite-size analysis. For the purpose of a maximum numerical accuracy, the analysis is carried out by taking transfer matrices proceeding in two perpendicular directions of the lattice.

Wang–Landau algorithm of Monte Carlo simulation is performed to understand the thermodynamic and magnetic properties of antiferromagnetic Ising model on honeycomb lattice. The internal energy, specific heat, free energy and entropy are calculated to present the thermodynamic behavior. For magnetic property, the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility are discussed at different temperature upon different magnetic field. The antiferromagnetic order is confirmed to be the ground state of the system, and it can be destroyed by a large magnetic field.

Based on the results published recently [SciPost Phys. 7, 026 (2019)], the influence of surfaces and boundary fields are calculated for the ferromagnetic anisotropic square lattice Ising model on finite lattices as well as in the finite-size scaling limit. Starting with the open cylinder, we independently apply boundary fields on both sides which can be either homogeneous or staggered, representing different combinations of boundary conditions. We confirm several predictions from scaling theory, conformal field theory and renormalisation group theory: we explicitly show that anisotropic couplings enter the scaling functions through a generalised aspect ratio, and demonstrate that open and staggered boundary conditions are asymptotically equal in the scaling regime. Furthermore, we examine the emergence of the surface tension due to one antiperiodic boundary in the system in the presence of symmetry breaking boundary fields, again for finite systems as well as in the scaling limit. Finally, we extend our results to the antiferromagnetic Ising model.

It is shown that the general 8-vertex model on the honeycomb lattice is always reducible to an Ising model in a nonzero but generally complex magnetic field. In the most general case of the staggered 8-vertex model characterized by 16 independent vertex weights, the equivalent Ising model has three anisotropic interactions and a staggered magnetic field which assumes two different values on the two sublattices.

Abstract X-ray small-angle scattering experiments were performed on nine melts of the Cd-Ga system at different temperatures up to 440°C. Evaluation of the data follows the Ornstein-Zernike theory of critical scattering, thus yielding correlation lengths ξ of concentration fluctuations and the long-wavelength limit Sec (0) of the Bhatia-Thornton structure factor. Studies of the concentration and temperature dependence of ξ and SCC (0) indicate that the critical point occurs at cc = 50.0 ± 1-0 at % Ga and Tc - 295.2 ± 0-1° C. For a melt with the critical concentration, SCC (0) increases up to 3500 times the ideal S1dCC (0)=CACB-This indicates a strong segregation tendency. In the vicinity of the critical point of the Cd-Ga system, experimental correlation lengths ξ > 100 A were obtained. The critical-point exponents ν and γ were determined. It follows that the behaviour of a critical Cd-Ga melt satisfies the prediction of the classical mean-field theory for higher temperatures, whereas, within experimental accuracy, the lattice-gas predictions are satisfied upon approaching the critical temperature.
