Transition Matrix Monte Carlo
Although histogram methods have been extremely effective for analyzing data from Monte Carlo simulations, they do have certain limitations, including the range over which they are valid and the difficulties of combining data from independent simulations. In this paper, we describe an complementary approach to extracting information from Monte Carlo simulations that uses the matrix of transition...
متن کاملTransition Matrix Monte Carlo Method
We present a formalism of the transition matrix Monte Carlo method. A stochastic matrix in the space of energy can be estimated from Monte Carlo simulation. This matrix is used to compute the density of states, as well as to construct multi-canonical and equal-hit algorithms. We discuss the performance of the methods. The results are compared with single histogram method, multi-canonical method...
متن کاملTransition matrix Monte Carlo and flat-histogram algorithm
In any valid Monte Carlo sampling that realizes microcanonical property we can collect statistics for a transition matrix in energy. This matrix is used to determine the density of states, from which most of the thermodynamical averages can be calculated, including free energy and entropy. We discuss single-spin-flip algorithms, such as flat-histogram and equal-hit algorithms, that can be used ...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations in the microcanonical ensemble: Quantitative comparison and reweighting techniques.
Molecular Dynamics (MD) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are the most popular simulation techniques for many-particle systems. Although they are often applied to similar systems, it is unclear to which extent one has to expect quantitative agreement of the two simulation techniques. In this work, we present a quantitative comparison of MD and MC simulations in the microcanonical ensemble. For t...
متن کاملMonte Carlo transition probabilities
Transition probabilities governing the interaction of energy packets and matter are derived that allow Monte Carlo NLTE transfer codes to be constructed without simplifying the treatment of line formation. These probabilities are such that the Monte Carlo calculation asymptotically recovers the local emissivity of a gas in statistical and radiative equilibrium. Numerical experiments with one-po...
