Ferromagnetic(J 〉 0) or antiferromagnetic(J 〈 0)bonds or dilution of the bonds(J = 0) are assumed between the atoms with some probabilities. It is found that the secondor the first-order phase boundaries separate the ferromagnetic(F), antiferromagnetic(AF), paramagnetic(P), or spin-glass(SG) phases from the possible other one. In addition to the tricritical points, the special points at which the second- and the first-order and the spin-glass phase lines meet are also found. Very rich phase diagrams in agreement with the literature are obtained.展开更多
