Abstract
We study the phase-ordering kinetics of the one-dimensional Heisenberg model with conserved order parameter, by means of scaling arguments and numerical simulations. We find a rich dynamical pattern with a regime characterized by two distinct growing lengths. Spins are found to be coplanar over regions of a typical size , while inside these regions smooth rotations associated to a smaller length are observed. Two different and coexisting ordering mechanisms are associated to these lengths, leading to different growth laws and violating dynamical scaling.
