Random Dilution at Marginal Dimensionality in LiTb_{p}Y_{1-p}F_{4}

Abstract
The Tc(p) vs p phase diagram and the critical behavior of the magnetic susceptibility of the randomly diluted, three-dimensional, Ising, dipolar-coupled ferromagnet LiTbpY1pF4 has been measured for 0.97>~p>~0.46. For p>~0.46 the Tc(p) phase diagram obeys the relation Tc(p)=2.88 K(3.24±0.10 K)(1p). At small p, a power-law fit is found to be qualitatively more in agreement with the data than either the renormalization-group logarithmically corrected power law or a recent prediction for the random dipolar Ising magnet.
