Editing Ising model

The '''Ising model''' <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF02980577 Ernst Ising "Beitrag zur Theorie des Ferromagnetismus", 	Zeitschrift für Physik A Hadrons and Nuclei '''31''' pp. 253-258 (1925)]</ref> (also known as the '''Lenz-Ising''' model) is commonly defined over an ordered lattice. 
Each site of the lattice can adopt two states, <math>S \in \{-1, +1 \}</math>. Note that sometimes these states are referred to as ''spins'' and the values are referred to as ''down'' and ''up'' respectively. 
The energy of the system is the sum of pair interactions
between nearest neighbors.

:<math> \frac{U}{k_B T} = - K \sum_{\langle ij \rangle} S_i S_j </math>

where <math>k_B</math> is the [[Boltzmann constant]], <math>T</math> is the [[temperature]],  <math> \langle ij \rangle </math> indicates that the sum is performed over nearest neighbors, and
<math> S_i </math> indicates the state of the i-th site, and <math> K </math> is the coupling constant.

==1-dimensional Ising model==
:''Main article: [[1-dimensional Ising model]]''
The 1-dimensional Ising model has an exact solution.

==2-dimensional Ising model==
The 2-dimensional [[Building up a square lattice |square lattice]] Ising model was solved by [[Lars Onsager]] in 1944

after [[Rudolf Peierls]] had previously shown  that, contrary to the one-dimensional case, the two-dimensional model must have a phase transition

====Critical temperature====
The [[Critical points | critical temperature]] of the 2D Ising model is given by <ref  name="Onsager"> </ref>
:<math>\sinh \left( \frac{2S}{k_BT_c} \right) \sinh \left( \frac{2S'}{k_BT_c} \right)  =1</math> 
where <math>S</math> is the interaction energy in the <math>(0,1)</math> direction, and <math>S'</math> is the interaction energy in the <math>(1,0)</math> direction.
If these interaction energies are the same one has 
:<math>k_BT_c = \frac{2S}{ \operatorname{arcsinh}(1)} \approx 2.269 S</math>

====Critical exponents====
The [[critical exponents]] are as follows:
*Heat capacity exponent <math>\alpha = 0</math> (Baxter Eq. 7.12.12)
*Magnetic order parameter exponent <math>\beta = \frac{1}{8}</math> (Baxter Eq. 7.12.14)
*Susceptibility exponent <math>\gamma = \frac{7}{4} </math> (Baxter Eq. 7.12.15)
