Phase transition in a three-axial ferromagnet with single-ion anisotropy: Application to U3P4

Abstract
The problem of the phase transition from the paramagnetic to the ferromagnetic state in U3P4 compounds is discussed, based upon a previously proposed model which contains a three-axial single-ion anisotropy. In the framework of the molecular-field approximation, the thermodynamic perturbation theory is applied in the vicinity of the Curie point, and the Curie temperature and magnetic ordering are determined.
