Abstract
In this micro-canonical simulation the temperature and also the specific heat are determined as averages of expressions easy to implement. The XY-chain is studied for a test. The second order transition on a cubic lattice and the first order transition on an fcc lattice are analyzed in greater detail to have a more severe test about the feasibility of this micro-canonical method.
