Universal low-temperature properties of quantum and classical ferromagnetic chains

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v2

Abstract

We identify the critical theory controlling the universal, low temperature, macroscopic properties of both quantum and classical ferromagnetic chains. The theory is the quantum mechanics of a single rotor. The mapping leads to an efficient method for computing scaling functions to high accuracy.
