Abstract: (Elsevier)
For O( N )-symmetric spin models in the spontaneously broken phase, we study the distribution of the mean field Φ=V −1 fd d x φ (x) at large volume. We use results from chiral perturbation theory to show that this distribution obeys a scaling law. The shape of the constraint effective potential is determined in the scaling limit.- model: spin
