摘要: The thermodynamics and the phase diagram of random field Ising model (RFIM) on Bethe lattice are studied by using a replica trick. This lattice is placed in an external magnetic field (B). A Gaussian distribution of random field (hi) with zero mean and variance <hi2> = HRF2 is considered. The free-energy (F), the magnetization (M) and the order parameter (q) are investigated for several values of coordination number (z). The phase diagram shows several interesting behaviours and presents tricritical point at critical temperature TC = J / k and when HRF = 0 for finite z. The free-energy (F) values increase as T increases for different intensities of random field (HRF) and finite z. The internal energy (U) has a similar behaviour to that obtained from the Monte Carlo simulations. The ground state of magnetization decreases as the intensity of random field HRF increases. The ferromagnetic (FM)-paramagnetic (PM) phase boundary is clearly observed only when z → ∞ . While FM-PM-spin glass (SG) phase boundaries are present for finite z. The magnetic susceptibility (χ) shows a sharp cusp at TC in a small random field for finite z and rounded different peaks on increasing HRF.

Abstract: The thermodynamics and the phase diagram of random field Ising model (RFIM) on Bethe lattice are  studied by using a replica trick. This lattice is placed in an external magnetic field ($B$). A Gaussian  distribution of random field $( {h_{\rm i} } )$ with zero mean and variance $\langle {{h}_{\rm i}^{\rm 2} }  \rangle = { H}_{{\rm RF}}^{\rm 2} $ is considered. The free-energy ($F$), the magnetization ($M$) and the  order parameter ($q$) are investigated for several values of coordination number ($z$). The phase diagram shows several interesting behaviours and presents tricritical point at critical temperature $T_{\rm C} = J /  k$ and when $H_{\rm RF} = 0$ for finite $z$. The free-energy ($F$) values increase as $T$ increases for  different intensities of random field ($H_{\rm RF} $) and finite $z$. The internal energy ($U$) has a similar  behaviour to that obtained from the Monte Carlo simulations. The ground state of magnetization decreases as  the intensity of random field $H_{\rm RF} $ increases. The ferromagnetic (FM)--paramagnetic (PM) phase boundary is clearly observed only when $z \to \infty $. While FM--PM-spin glass (SG) phase boundaries are  present for finite $z$. The magnetic susceptibility ($\chi $) shows a sharp cusp at $T_{\rm C} $ in a small  random field for finite $z$ and rounded different peaks on increasing $H_{\rm RF}$.
