Multicritical points are special points in the parameter space of thermodynamic or
other systems with a continuous phase transition. At least two thermodynamic or other
parameters must be adjusted to reach a multicritical point. At a multicritical point the system belongs to a universality class different from the "normal" universality class.
A more detailed definition requires concepts from the theory of critical phenomena.
