Thermally activated interface motion in a disordered ferromagnet

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

We investigate interface motion in disordered ferromagnets by means of Monte Carlo simulations. For small temperatures and driving fields a so-called creep regime is found and the interface velocity obeys an Arrhenius law. We analyze the corresponding energy barrier as well as the field and temperature dependence of the prefactor.
