For the mean-field spherical model in random fields, the paper classifies metastates and overlap distributions: continuous symmetry breaking for d>=2, with non-self-averaging, replica-symmetry-breaking overlaps when fields are scaled by 1/sqrt(n).

$d$-dimensional spherical ferromagnets in random fields: Metastates, continuous symmetry breaking, and spin-glass features
For the mean-field spherical model in random fields, the paper classifies metastates and overlap distributions: continuous symmetry breaking for d>=2, with non-self-averaging, replica-symmetry-breaking overlaps when fields are scaled by 1/sqrt(n).
