First order phase transitions of spin systems
arXiv:hep-lat/9501003 · doi:10.1016/0920-5632(95)00183-A
Abstract
I review some numerical ways to determine the parameters of systems close to a first order phase transition point: energy and specific heat of the coexisting phases and interface tension. Numerical examples are given for the 2-d states Potts model.
