Abstract
The () phase diagram of a cubic ferromagnet with three easy axes, in a field , is studied by mean-field, scaling, and renormalization-group theories. For and there is a phase transition at fields , described by the three-component Potts model. By varying the full phase diagram of the three-dimensional Potts model is experimentally accessible and competing predictions of the multicritical behavior can be tested.
