Phase diagrams of spin-1 Ising model with bilinear and quadrupolar interactions under magnetic field. Two-particle cluster approximation
The spin-1 Ising model with bilinear and quadrupolar short-range
interactions under magnetic field is investigated within the
two-particle cluster approximation. It is shown that for those
values of the quadrupolar interaction when at zero magnetic field
the system undergoes a temperature phase transition between
quadrupolar and paramagnetic phases, a triple point may exist in
the temperature vs. magnetic field phase diagrams, necessarily
along with a critical point. It is also shown that the critical
points in the temperature vs. magnetic field phase diagrams of the
investigated model can be of three types
