Abstract
We study the time evolution of the two-dimensional kinetic Ising model in finite systems with a non-conserved order parameter, considering nearest-neighbour interactions on the square lattice with periodic and open boundary conditions. Universal data collapse in spin product correlation functions is observed which, when expressed in rescaled units, is valid across the entire time evolution of the system at all length scales, not just within the time regime usually considered in the dynamical scaling hypothesis. Consequently, beyond rapidly decaying finite size effects, the evolution of correlations in small finite systems parallels arbitrarily larger cases, even at large fractions of the size of these finite systems.
