===Magnetic=== {{See also|Magnetic structure}} [[File:MnSi magnetic phase diagram.png|class=skin-invert-image|thumb|250px|A phase diagram showing different [[magnetic structure]]s in the same crystal structure of [[Manganese monosilicide]].]] Phase transitions can also describe the change between different kinds of [[magnetic ordering]]. The most well-known is the transition between the [[ferromagnetism|ferromagnetic]] and [[paramagnetism|paramagnetic]] phases of [[magnet]]ic materials, which occurs at what is called the [[Curie point]]. Another example is the transition between differently ordered, [[Commensurability (mathematics)|commensurate]] or incommensurate, magnetic structures, such as in cerium [[antimonide]]. A simplified but highly useful model of magnetic phase transitions is provided by the [[Ising Model|Ising model]].
