Abstract

The current understanding of aging phenomena is mainly confined to the study of systems with short-ranged interactions. Little is known about the aging of long-ranged systems. Here, the aging in the phase-ordering kinetics of the two-dimensional Ising model with power-law long-range interactions is studied via Monte Carlo simulations. The dynamical scaling of the two-time spin-spin autocorrelator is well described by simple aging for all interaction ranges studied. The autocorrelation exponents are consistent with λ=1.25\lambda=1.25 in the effectively short-range regime, while for stronger long-range interactions the data are consistent with λ=d/2=1\lambda=d/2=1. For very long-ranged interactions, strong finite-size effects are observed. We discuss whether such finite-size effects could be misinterpreted phenomenologically as sub-aging.
