Abstract There are the chains of transition-metal cations alternating with the anions of oxygen in ternary transition-metal oxides. When a p-orbital of the oxygen connects the half-filled and empty d-orbitals of adjacent transition-metal cations, double-exchange ferromagnetism takes place. Although double exchange has been well explored, the nature of novel criticality, induced by it, is yet not uncovered. We explored the magnetic-field scaling in the heat capacity of a Sm0.55Sr0.45MnO3 manganite, one of the best ternary transition-metal oxides as it is completely ferromagnetic, and found novel criticality - unordinary critical exponents which are the consequence of coherence of Coulomb lattice distortion and ferromagnetism. The coherence is caused by the trinity of the mass, the charge and the spin of an electron. When the d and p orbitals overlaps, it quickly walks from one site to the another due its lightest mass. And due to its electric charge, it equalizes the valences of the transition-metal cations in the chains and so diminishes the Coulomb lattice distortion. At last, its spin forces magnetic moments of transition-metal cations to ferromagnetically arrange. The disappearance of Coulomb distortions widens the overlap and lowers the elastic lattice energy, so that not only the spin of an electron, but also its electric charge strengthens ferromagnetism. That nonlinear effect strengthens the critical behaviour and critical exponents come off any known universality classes. Thus, the symbiotic coherence of annihilating Coulomb distortions and arising ferromagnetism is a reason of the novel criticality.
