Abstract

Here, we present a theoretical study of a new statistical lattice model based on a double hexagonal structure associated with G2 symmetry. Using Monte Carlo simulation, we study the magnetic properties of the Ising-1/2 model with spin values σ = ±1 residing on the sites of our double hexagonal lattice. In particular, we calculate and analyze the thermal behavior of the total and partial magnetizations as well as the corresponding susceptibilities for different lattice sizes. The present study shows that the total and partial magnetizations vanish at the same critical temperature. This vanishing is continuous, indicating that the type of the transition is a second order. With the help of the finite-size scaling analysis, we estimate the critical transition temperature related to the uniform coupling interaction value equals one. Our findings reflect a good estimation of the critical temperature, TC that is equal to 2.976∓0.004JkB. The obtained critical temperature of our presented model can be found between the critical temperatures of hexagonal and triangular lattice models.

On Critical Temperature and Finite Size Scaling of Continuous Spin $2d$ Ising Model

S. Mahapatra, Rudra Majhi, Jahangir Mohammed +3 more

In this paper, we have studied the critical temperature $T_c$ of continuous spin $2d$ square-lattice Ising model using Monte-Carlo simulation. We have considered spins $s$ in a bounded interval, where $s \in [-1,+1]$ in square-lattice configuration with periodic boundary condition. We have observed that the critical temperature $T_c$ is approximately $0.925$, showing a clear second order phase transition. Considering finite size scaling, we have also obtained the critical exponents associated with susceptibility, specific heat, magnetization and we find that these values are in good agreement with the corresponding values obtained for the standard $2d$ Ising universality class.

Critical Behavior Simulation of the Two-Dimensional Ising Model—A Computational Physics Study Based on the Monte Carlo Method

佳钢 李

To demonstrate the application of computational physics in modern statistical physics, this paper investigates the critical behavior of a finite-size ferromagnetic system based on the two-dimensional square-lattice Ising model.A nearest-neighbor Ising Hamiltonian is constructed, and periodic boundary conditions are adopted to reduce finite-boundary effects.The Metropolis Monte Carlo algorithm is used to sample spin configurations at different temperatures, while energy, magnetization, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility and Binder cumulant are calculated to describe the transition from an ordered state to a disordered state.The simulation results show that the system exhibits clear long-range order at low temperatures, where the order parameter remains high.As temperature increases, thermal fluctuations become stronger, magnetization decreases rapidly, and the system gradually evolves into a disordered state.The specific heat curve shows a pronounced peak at approximately (T = 2.269), while the susceptibility peak shifts slightly toward the high-temperature side due to finite-size effects and the discrete temperature grid.Overall, the simulated critical region is consistent with the theoretical critical temperature of the two-dimensional square-lattice Ising model.Spin-configuration analysis further reveals enhanced fluctuations and domain reconstruction near the critical region.In addition, a thermalization criterion and an extended sampling test for L = 48 near the critical region are added to examine the influence of finite sampling and equilibration.These results indicate that Monte Carlo simulation of the two-dimensional Ising model can effectively reproduce continuous phase transition, critical fluctuation and finite-size effects, providing a basic computational case for understanding critical phenomena in complex systems and data-driven physical analysis.

CRITICAL BEHAVIOR OF THE QUENCHED RANDOM MIXED-SPIN ISING MODEL

Maurício Godoy, W. Figueiredo

In this work, we simulated a quenched random mixed-spin Ising model on the square lattice. The model system consists of two different particles with spins σ = 1/2 (states ±1/2) and S = 1 (states ±1, 0). These particles are randomly distributed on the lattice, and we considered only nearest-neighbor interactions. This model can represent a random magnetic binary alloy AxB1-x, obtained from the high-temperature quenching of a liquid mixture. We performed Monte Carlo simulations for several lattice sizes and temperatures, and we found its critical temperature through the reduced fourth-order cumulant. We also determined the magnetization, the susceptibility, and the specific heat as a function of temperature. We used finite-size scaling arguments to estimate the critical exponents β, γ, and ν of the model. We showed that the quenched model is in the same universality class of the two-dimensional pure Ising model. We also investigated the sample to sample fluctuations that occur in the values of the thermodynamic quantities in order to describe the self-averaging properties at the critical point.

Monte-Carlo simulation of phase transition in 2D and 3D ising model

Rajendra Neupane, Hari Ram Krishna Gauli, Krishna Bahadur Rai +1 more

In this work, Markov Chain-Monte Carlo technique was used to study the phase transition in two and three dimensional Ising Model (IM) in a square and cubic lattice. The study of temperature dependence of average magnetization and specific heat in different magnetic fields has been carried out in the 3x3 and 3x3x3 lattice with periodic boundary. Critical temperature point kBTc / J for 2D and 3D Ising Model has been observed at around 2.2 and 4.3 respectively at zero field. Our work satisfies Onsager’s critical value in 2D IM. The simulation suggests bifurcation in average magnetization below critical temperature Tc. Temperature plays the role of increasing randomness of spins. We found that Ising Model in small lattice size still retains interesting features like spontaneous magnetization and symmetry breaking below Tc at B = 0. At a non-zero field, the likelihood of spins to prefer certain alignment depends on the direction of the external field and magnitude of magnetization depends on magnitude of field ±B. Specific heat Cv, which gives us fluctuation of energy at particular temperature, has been found to attain maximum value at critical regions.

Magnetic Properties of a Square Lattice Ising Ferromagnetic System for Different Spins with Monte Carlo Simulation

A. Azdouh, Said Harir, Anouar Elidrysy +3 more

Using the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) method combined with the Metropolis algorithm, we explore the magnetic properties of a two-dimensional (2D) spin system with spins 1, 2 and 3. The adapted simulation to the Ising model aims to study the impact of the correction term a of the interaction with second neighbors and the crystal field D on the critical temperature [Formula: see text] of the 2D anisotropic square lattice for different integer values of spins. The obtained results demonstrate that the critical temperature [Formula: see text] is significantly affected by the competing interactions between the anisotropy parameter, second-neighbor interaction and the crystal field. The considered model exhibits a critical phase transition regardless of the spin S value where the critical temperature increases with the value of S. Note that this phase transition occurs under the condition [Formula: see text]. Moreover, the obtained results show that the complex interactions give rise to a variety of phase diagrams, thereby revealing the richness of possible magnetic behaviors in the studied system.

Monte Carlo study of the phase transitions in 2D ferro- and antiferromagnetic Potts models on a triangular lattice

Akai Kurbanovich Murtazaev, Albert Babaevich Babaev

The phase transitions in 2D ferro- and antiferromagnetic Potts models with number of spin states q = 3 on a triangular lattice are investigated by the cluster and classical Monte Carlo methods. Systems with linear sizes L = 20–120 are considered. Fourth-order Binder cumulants and histogram data analysis are used to show that second- and first-order phase transitions are observed in the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic Potts models, respectively. The static critical indices are calculated for specific heat α, susceptibility γ, magnetization β, and correlation length ν on the basis of finite-size scaling theory for a ferromagnetic Potts model.
