The ordered solution gives
so the order-parameter critical exponent is
At , adding a magnetic term gives , hence
Above , the zero-field susceptibility is . Below , the curvature at a minimum is , so both sides give
At the ordered minimum, and
Since , the heat-capacity critical exponent is
These values obey the Widom scaling relation and Rushbrooke scaling relation at mean-field level.
