Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this paper, we apply the spin-wave theory within the simple self-consistent method, and provide a simple way to investigate the spin- 1/2 ferromagnetic chain with the y -direction exchange anisotropy. It is found that the anisotropy has an influence on the ground-state and low-temperature properties of the system. Anisotropy dependences of both the susceptibility maximum and specific heat maximum fit well to the exponential laws. The linear decrease is shown for the position of the susceptibility maximum. The position of the specific heat maximum displays three kinds of the anisotropy dependence, i.e., the power law, constant law and exponential law. The specific heat coefficient is calculated to be a monotonically increasing function of the anisotropy in the zero-temperature limit. At some low temperature, the Heisenberg behavior is observed to cross over the XY behavior, which agrees with the experimental result of the quasi-one-dimensional compound (C 6 H 11 NH 3 )CuBr 3. In the isotropic and anisotropic cases, our results are in good accord with the exact Bethe-ansatz results and quantum Monte Carlo estimates, and have some advantages over the findings of Green-function method and the renormalization group method at low temperatures.
