ABSTRACT

Customarily, critical phenomena are classified into

two categories, static and dynamic. Static phenomena con-

cern equilibrium properties such as magnetization, suscepti-

bility, specific heat, the probability distribution of spin con-

figurations, and the average size of the spin patches. Dy-

namic phenomena concern time dependent phenomena, such

as relaxation times, heat diffusion, and spin wave propaga-

tion. Up ' ’ntil now static phenomena have been much better

understood than dynamic phenomena.
