Abstract
An explicit Ising-spin lattice Hamiltonian is proposed as a model for studying the phase diagrams of micellar binary solutions on the micellar length scale. Incorporating many essential features, it can be used to check the validity of a previously suggested scenario for nonuniversality at the consolute point.
