Specific heat of a three dimensional Ising ferromagnet above the Curie temperature. II

For pt. I see abstr. A37614 of 1967. High temperature series expansions for the specific heat of the Ising model of a ferromagnet are given for the face-centred cubic, body-centred cubic, and simple cubic lattices. From a numerical study it is concluded that the critical index ( alpha ) is lattice independent and that in three dimensions alpha approximately=1/8. A numerical representation of the specific heat in the range TC<or=T<or= infinity is given in each case, together with estimates of the critical energy, entropy, and free energy. Asymptotic forms for the specific heat and energy are given.
