Overcoming the critical slowing down of flat-histogram Monte Carlo simulations: Cluster updates and optimized broad-histogram ensembles
Yong Wu, Mathias Koerner, Louis Colonna-Romano +4
We study the performance of Monte Carlo simulations that sample a broad histogram in energy by determining the mean first-passage time to span the entire energy space of d-dimensio…
Understanding the temperature and the chemical potential using computer simulations
Jan Tobochnik, Harvey Gould, Jonathan Machta
Several Monte Carlo algorithms and applications that are useful for understanding the concepts of temperature and chemical potential are discussed. We then introduce a generalizati…
Simulations of Spinodal Nucleation in Systems with Elastic Interactions
C. J. Gagne, W. Klein, T. Lookman +2
Systems with long-range interactions quenched into a metastable state near the pseudospinodal exhibit nucleation that is qualitatively different than the classical nucleation obser…
Heterogeneity in Classical and Non-Classical Nucleation
Natali Gulbahce, W. Klein, Harvey Gould
We investigate heterogeneous and homogeneous nucleation in nearest-neighbor and long-range Ising models for various quench depths. We find that the system has a true crossover from…
