摘要:
A simple electromechanical analog for Landau’s classical theory of second‐order symmetry‐breaking transitions is presented. The apparatus consists of a torsion pendulum, where a ceramic magnet suspended by two torsion springs is subjected to a uniform magnetic field. The pendulum angle is the analog of the order parameter in a phase transition, while the current passing through the Helmholtz coil, which produces the magnetic field, plays the role of temperature. With this setup, the critical exponents β, δ, γ, and γ’can be determined with good accuracy.
