We simulated the field-dependent magnetization m(H,T) and the
uniform susceptibility x(H,T) of
classical Heisenberg antiferromagnets in the chain and square-lattice
geometry using Monte Carlo methods.
The results confirm the singular behavior of at small T,H: and
, where D=3 is the number
of spin components,
, and z is the number of nearest
neighbors.
A good agreement is achieved in a wide range of
temperatures T and magnetic fields H with the first-order
1/D expansion results (D.A. Garanin, J. Stat. Phys. 83,
907 (1996)).
