COMMENTS
Previous name was: Susceptibility series for hexagonal lattice.
The hexagonal lattice is the familiar 2-dimensional lattice in which each point has 6 neighbors. This is sometimes called the triangular lattice.
The actual susceptibility per spin is this series times m^2/kT. (m is the magnetic moment of a single spin; this factor may be present or absent depending on the precise definition of the susceptibility.)
