Simulation Techniques for Soft Matter Sciences (SS 2007)/Ising 1

Overview

This tutorial covers

• understanding a MC code for the Ising model
• running the code and compute some simple observables
• using the reweighting method

Content

In this first tutorial on the Ising model you have to understand and run a MC code. Some key parts of the code are also missing, and have to be written during the tutorial. Within this tutorial some preliminary data analysis will also be performed (visual inspection of different phases, computation of magnatization vs. temperature in a couple of cases, use of the reweighting technique to compute the specific heat as a function of temperature)
