Abstract
The relationship 2η=m is derived for the Ising model with a potential of the large-r form ν(r)rdσ, when md<12 [and for continuum fluids with such a ν(r) when md<13], where η has its usual meaning as a critical exponent and m=min[σ,2]. On the basis of this result, it is argued that the numerical estimates of Nagle and Bonner indicate a breakdown of strong scaling in the Ising chain with long-range potential.
