The Monte Carlo method is now widely used and commonly accepted as an important and
useful tool in solid state physics and related fields. It is broadly recognized that the technique …

Computing has become a third branch of research, joining the traditional practices of
theorization and laboratory experimentation and verification. Due to the expense and …

In this paper the static properties of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm are studied in the
context of condensed-matter systems. The algorithm is used to simulate a Lennard-Jones …

Motivated by recent experiments, we have performed simulations which show in detail how
the electrons and ions in GaAs respond to fast intense laser pulses (with durations of order …

An extension of the synchronous parallel kinetic Monte Carlo (spkMC) algorithm developed
by Martinez et al.[J. Comp. Phys. 227 (2008) 3804] to discrete lattices is presented. The …

Abstract We present Monte Carlo simulation results for the dynamical critical exponent z of
the two-, three-and five-dimensional kinetic Ising model. We used Glauber as well as …

Computer Simulation and Computer Algebra. Starting from simple examples in classical
mechanics, these introductory lectures proceed to simulations in statistical physics (using …

The complex interplay between the various attractive and repulsive forces that mediate
between biological membranes governs an astounding array of biological functions: cell …

In this article a procedure is derived to obtain a performance gain for molecular dynamics
(MD) simulations on existing parallel clusters. Parallel clusters use a wide array of …

The authors have derived interatomic pair potentials for liquid transition metals using the
tight-binding cluster Bethe lattice method (CBLM) in which the important role of s electrons …
