Homework Statement
H=H_{0} -g\muSB
H_{0} = hamiltonian in absence of field
S=Spin operator in the direction of the fied (say along z-axis)
show that
1) M=1/\beta (dLn Z/ dB)
2) \chi = \beta(g \mu)^{2} <(S-<S>)^{}2>
Dont know why it shows\mu in superscript. It isn't meant to be!
That is the chemical potential.
Homework Equations
Canonical partition function for a grand ensemble is
Z=Tr{exp(-\beta(H-\muN)}
The Attempt at a Solution
I know that M=g\mu<S>
I don't know how to go about differentiating Ln Z w.r.t B
For the second part, I used the given result and differentiated it w.r.t B again.
I get \betatimes some junk! I can't get to the required result. I have a feeling its very poor math on my part. Any leads from here on would be well received.
