Abstract

We investigate the critical behavior of the two-dimensional spin-1 Baxter–Wu model in a crystal field using entropic sampling simulations, based on the Wang–Landau method, with the joint density of states. We obtain the temperature–crystal field phase diagram, which includes a tetracritical line ending at a pentacritical point. A finite-size scaling analysis of the maximum of the specific heat, while changing the crystal field anisotropy, is used to obtain a precise location of the pentacritical point. Our results give the critical temperature and crystal field as Tpc=0.98030(10) and Dpc=1.68288(62). We also detect that at the first-order region of the phase diagram, the specific heat exhibits a double peak structure as in the Schottky-like anomaly, which is associated with an order–disorder transition.
