12. We note that Lado have determined phase coexistence curves for a classical Heisenberg spin fluid with short-range interactions in an external magnetic field. They observe an increase in the critical temperature with increasing field strength.

30. This formula is derived in Appendix A.2 of Ref.. Note, however, that the dielectric constant ε2 in A.2 is unity in the present case because it refers to an "extra" underlying continuum and should not be confused with εin.
