Consistency of Microcanonical and Canoni - cal Finite - Size Scaling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Typically, in order to obtain finite-size scaling laws for quantities in the microcanonical ensemble, an assumption is taken as a starting point. In this paper, consistency of such a Microcanonical Finite-Size Scaling Assumption with its commonly accepted canonical counterpart is shown, which puts Microcanonical Finite-Size Scaling on a firmer footing.

Microcanonical scaling in small systems
A microcanonical finite-size scaling ansatz is discussed. It exploits the existence of a well-defined transition point for systems of finite size in the microcanonical ensemble. The best data collapse obtained for small systems yields values for the critical exponents in good agreement with other approaches. The exact location of the infinite system critical point is not needed when extracting ...
متن کاملCritical-point finite-size scaling in the microcanonical ensemble.
We develop a scaling theory for the finite-size critical behavior of the microcanonical entropy (density of states) of a system with a critically divergent heat capacity. The link between the microcanonical entropy and the canonical energy distribution is exploited to establish the former, and corroborate its predicted scaling form, in the case of the 3d Ising universality class. We show that t...
متن کاملContinuous phase transitions with a convex dip in the microcanonical entropy.
The appearance of a convex dip in the microcanonical entropy of finite systems usually signals a first order transition. However, a convex dip also shows up in some systems with a continuous transition as, for example, in the Baxter-Wu model and in the four-state Potts model in two dimensions. We demonstrate that the appearance of a convex dip in those cases can be traced back to a finite-size ...
متن کاملFinite-size scaling study of shear viscosity anomaly at liquid-liquid criticality.
We study the equilibrium dynamics of a symmetrical binary Lennard-Jones fluid mixture near its consolute criticality. Molecular dynamics simulation results for the shear viscosity, η, from a microcanonical ensemble are compared with those from a canonical ensemble with various thermostats. It is observed that the Nosé-Hoover thermostat is a good candidate for this purpose, and is therefore adop...

Rain gauge stations that measure fine scale rainfall are mainly limited in number or in the length of the recorded data. Therefore, temporal disaggregation models have been considered because of their ability in generating fine scale data from coarse scale measurements of rainfall. In this study, microcanonical cascade model, which is based on the scaling properties of rainfall and consta...
