Spinodal Decomposition and the Tomita Sum Rule

Statistical Mechanics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The scaling properties of a phase-ordering system with a conserved order parameter are studied. The theory developed leads to scaling functions satisfying certain general properties including the Tomita sum rule. The theory also gives good agreement with numerical results for the order parameter scaling function in three dimensions. The values of the associated nonequilibrium decay exponents are given by the known lower bounds.
