Universality class of thermally diluted Ising systems at criticality

Abstract

The universality class of thermally diluted Ising systems, in which the realization of the disposition of magnetic atoms and vacancies is taken from the local distribution of spins in the pure original Ising model at criticality, is investigated by finite size scaling techniques using the Monte Carlo method. We find that the critical temperature, the critical exponents, and therefore the universality class of these thermally diluted Ising systems depart markedly from the ones of short-range correlated disordered systems. Our results agree fairly well with theoretical predictions previously made by Weinrib and Halperin for systems with long-range correlated disorder.

THERMALLY DILUTED ISING SYSTEMS

Manuel I. Marqués, Julio A. Gonzalo, Jorge Íñiguez

In this paper finite size scaling techniques are used to study the universality class of thermally diluted Ising systems, in which the realization of the disposition of magnetic atoms and vacancies is taken from the local distribution of spins in the pure original Ising model at criticality. The critical temperature, the critical exponents and therefore the universality class of these thermally diluted Ising systems depart markedly from the ones of short range correlated disordered systems. This result is in agreement with theoretical predictions previously made by Weinrib and Halperin for systems with long range correlated disorder.

Computer simulation of the critical behavior of 3D disordered ising model

V. V. Prudnikov, Pavel Vladimirovich Prudnikov, A. N. Vakilov +1 more

The critical behavior of the disordered ferromagnetic Ising model is studied numerically by the Monte Carlo method in a wide range of variation of concentration of nonmagnetic impurity atoms. The temperature dependences of correlation length and magnetic susceptibility are determined for samples with various spin concentrations and various linear sizes. The finite-size scaling technique is used for obtaining scaling functions for these quantities, which exhibit a universal behavior in the critical region; the critical temperatures and static critical exponents are also determined using scaling corrections. On the basis of variation of the scaling functions and values of critical exponents upon a change in the concentration, the conclusion is drawn concerning the existence of two universal classes of the critical behavior of the diluted Ising model with different characteristics for weakly and strongly disordered systems.

Universality in disordered systems: The case of the three-dimensional random-bond Ising model

Nikolaos G. Fytas, Panagiotis E. Theodorakis

We study the critical behavior of the d=3 Ising model with bond randomness through extensive Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling techniques. Our results indicate that the critical behavior of the random-bond model is governed by the same universality class as the site- and bond-diluted models, clearly distinct from that of the pure model, thus providing a complete set of universality in disordered systems.

Monte Carlo simulation of strongly disordered Ising ferromagnets

Hans-Otto Heuer

We report extensive Monte Carlo simulations of disordered Ising systems in the ferromagnetic region with concentrations of magnetic sites between p=1.0 and 0.5. The magnetization, the susceptibility, and the caloric properties have been studied in the critical region. The critical exponents \ensuremath{\beta} and \ensuremath{\gamma} as well as the universal amplitude A of the magnetization and the ratio ${\mathit{C}}_{+}$/${\mathit{C}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$ of the susceptibility amplitudes have been determined with high precision. In addition to the cusplike specific heat, we have also measured the magnetization-energy correlation function \ensuremath{\Gamma}, which is a divergent thermal quantity. The corresponding critical exponent \ensuremath{\zeta}, which is related to the other exponents by \ensuremath{\zeta}=1-\ensuremath{\beta}=(\ensuremath{\alpha}+\ensuremath{\gamma})/2, has been determined. We have found that all quantities show power-law behavior within the temperature range of our simulation. All critical exponents change continuously with dilution. Even in the range of weak dilution (p\ensuremath{\ge}0.8), the effective critical exponents are concentration dependent and are clearly different from their pure system values. In the strongly diluted regime the critical exponents gradually reach new asymptotic behavior at p=0.5--0.6 with values of \ensuremath{\beta}=0.335\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.01 and \ensuremath{\gamma}=1.49\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02. The exponent \ensuremath{\alpha} of the specific heat becomes -0.17\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04, which corresponds to a cusplike singularity. We conclude that disorder profoundly changes the critical behavior for weakly as well as strongly disordered spin systems.

Self-averaging of random and thermally disordered diluted Ising systems

Manuel I. Marqués, Julio A. Gonzalo

Self-averaging of singular thermodynamic quantities at criticality for randomly and thermally diluted three-dimensional Ising systems has been studied by the Monte Carlo approach. Substantially improved self-averaging is obtained for critically clustered (critically thermally diluted) vacancy distributions in comparison with the observed self-averaging for purely random diluted distributions. Critically thermal dilution, leading to maximum relative self-averaging, corresponds to the case when the characteristic vacancy ordering temperature (theta) is made equal to the magnetic critical temperature for the pure three-dimensional (3D) Ising systems (T(3D)(c)). For the case of a high ordering temperature (theta>>T(3D)(c)), the self-averaging obtained is comparable to that in a randomly diluted system.

Ising exponents in the two-dimensional site-diluted Ising model

H.G. Ballesteros, L. A. Fernández, Víctor Martín-Mayor +3 more

We study the site-diluted Ising model in two dimensions with Monte Carlo simulations. Using finite-size scaling techniques we compute the critical exponents observing deviations from the pure Ising ones. The differences can be explained as the effects of logarithmic corrections, without requiring us to change the universality class.
