Resumen de On the critical behavior of the spin-s Ising model (6 pages)
The spin-sone dimensional Ising model is studied analytically within the framework of transfer matrix method. Exact results for some thermodynamical properties such as the internal energy, the entropy, the magnetization and the magnetic susceptibility are obtained for general spin-s in the absence (presence) of a magnetic field. The critical behavior of the thermodynamical properties are analysed for some values of spin-s (1/2, 1 and 3/2) at different temperature and field. The asymptotic behavior of these properties are investigated especially close to the critical temperatura T → 0 and when T → ∞.
