This is done by varying the two-particle interactions induced by the heat bath and the onsite two-particle interaction U. It is shown that in the presence of the heat bath-induced interaction, the partition function Z drops to a minimum finite value in the repulsive regime of U at the normalized temperature region kTt/2, where t is the tunneling parameter. In this temperature region, the convergence points of the respective isolines of the entropy S and the heat capacity Cᵥ move towards each other. Such shift in their features finetune S and Cᵥ relative to their behavior in the absence of two-particle interactions with the bath.}, year = {2022}, journal = {J. Magn. Magn.
