Abstract: | The spin-pair correlation functions of the classical Heisenberg ferromagnet with simple cubic lattice have been calculated in the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic temperature range using the self-consistent Monte Carlo method. The results agree with high-temperature series expansions aboveT c , for low temperatures with spin-wave theory. By two different approaches the divergence of the ferromagnetic homogeneous susceptibility in zero field throughout the ferromagnetic temperature range could be verified. The functional dependence of the static susceptibilityχ T (k) upon the inverse correlation lengthκ 1 is discussed above and belowT c and a Fourier transform for the explicit dependence of the spin correlations upon correlation length belowT c is given. According to these results the scaling assumptionv=v′ for the exponents of the correlation length in the critical region is consistent with a divergent ferromagnetic susceptibility. |
