Bona Fide Thermodynamic Temperature in Nonequilibrium Kinetic Ising Models

Statistical Mechanics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We show that a nominal temperature can be consistently and uniquely defined everywhere in the phase diagram of large classes of nonequilibrium kinetic Ising spin models. In addition, we confirm the recent proposal that, at critical points, the large-time ``fluctuation-dissipation ratio'' XX_\infty is a universal amplitude ratio and find in particular X0.33(2)X_\infty \approx 0.33(2) and X=1/2X_\infty = 1/2 for the magnetization in, respectively, the two-dimensional Ising and voter universality classes.
