Kinetic Ising model in an oscillating field: Avrami theory for the hysteretic response and finite-size scaling for the dynamic phase transition
S. W. Sides, P. A. Rikvold, M. A. Novotny
Hysteresis is studied for a two-dimensional, spin-1/2, nearest-neighbor, kinetic Ising ferromagnet in an oscillating field, using Monte Carlo simulations and analytical theory. Att…
Stochastic Hysteresis and Resonance in a Kinetic Ising System
S. W. Sides, P. A. Rikvold, M. A. Novotny
We study hysteresis for a two-dimensional, spin-1/2, nearest-neighbor, kinetic Ising ferromagnet in an oscillating field, using Monte Carlo simulations and analytical theory. Atten…
Hysteresis loop areas in kinetic Ising models: Effects of the switching mechanism
S. W. Sides, P. A. Rikvold, M. A. Novotny
Experiments on ferromagnetic thin films have measured the dependence of the hysteresis loop area on the amplitude and frequency of the external field, =, and approxi…
Metastable lifetimes in a kinetic Ising model: Dependence on field and system size
Per Arne Rikvold, H. Tomita, S. Miyashita +1
The lifetimes of metastable states in kinetic Ising ferromagnets are studied by droplet theory and Monte Carlo simulation, in order to determine their dependences on applied field…
