Determination of the Critical Point and Exponents from short-time Dynamics

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The dynamic process for the two dimensional three state Potts model in the critical domain is simulated by the Monte Carlo method. It is shown that the critical point can rigorously be located from the universal short-time behaviour. This makes it possible to investigate critical dynamics independently of the equilibrium state. From the power law behaviour of the magnetization the exponents β/(νz)\beta / (\nu z) and 1/(νz)1/ (\nu z) are determined.
