 +The Hamiltonian limit of this model is a spin chain (referred to as the "transverse Ising model"):
 +\[
 +H = -\mu \sum_r \sigma_x(r) - J \sum_r \sigma_z(r) \sigma_z(r+1)\text.
 +\]
 +This model can be transformed to a quadratic theory of fermion fields, and thence solved, via a Jordan-Wigner transformation.
