condensed matter - Phase transition in 2D Heisenberg model


When we study the two-dimensional isotropic Heisenberg Model using Mean Field Theory or by Monte Carlo simulation we observe a phase transition at a temperature not equal to zero. This is opposed to Mermin Wagner theorem. Interestingly this ordering happens only in z direction. Can anybody explain why we observe such a transition?

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
