Finite-Size Effects in Critical Phenomena from Mean Field Approach with $ϕ^4$ Model

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/27711The finite-size effects in critical phenomena of a thin film system are studied from a mean field (MF) approach with $ϕ^4$ model for second-order phase transition. The influence of boundary condition on the critical properties are emphasized. Scaling functions for relative free-energy and relative specific heat capacity are given.10 pages, LaTeX, 4 figure in PS formatCondensed MatterFinite-Size Effects in Critical Phenomena from Mean Field Approach with $ϕ^4$ Modeltext
