21. ex admits a ferromagnetic solution when the exchange coupling is sufficientyly large. A ferromagnetic instability can be obtained from the condition that one of the mode frequencies vanishes at q = 0. for SmS and its alloys, the exchange coupling is far too weak to stabilize a ferromagnetic ground state. In principle, however, the magnetic solution for a system with random quantization axis would be a spin glass.
