Abstract

A family of nonequilibrium kinetic Ising models, introduced earlier, evolving under the competing effect of spin flips at {\it zero temperature} and nearest neighbour random spin exchanges is further investigated here. By increasing the range of spin exchanges and/or their strength the nature of the phase transition 'Ising-to-active' becomes of (dynamic) mean-field type and a first order tricitical point is located at the Glauber () limit. Corrections to mean-field theory are evaluated up to sixth order in a cluster approximation and found to give good results concerning the phase boundary and the critical exponent of the order parameter which is obtained as .
