Universal Susceptibility Variations in 1+1 Dimensional Vortex Glass
arXiv:cond-mat/9910058 · doi:10.1016/S0921-4534(99)00677-2
Abstract
We model a planar array of fluxlines as a discrete solid-on-solid model with quenched disorder. Simulations at finite temperatures are made possible by a new algorithm which circumvents the slow glassy dynamics encountered by traditional Metropolis Monte Carlo algorithms. Numerical results on magnetic susceptibility variations support analytic predictions.
