A system with a short-range attraction and a competing long-range screened repulsion is studied by using the self-consistent Hartree approximation and a replica approach. It is shown that by varying the parameters of the repulsive potential and the temperature yields a phase coexistence, a...

The aim of the present work is to quantitatively study the early kinetics of the microphase separation in ramified polymer blends, made of two incompatible polymers A and B, dissolved in a common good solvent. Use is made of an extended blob model used previously for the investigation of the...

In this paper, we are interested in the critical behavior of the dynamic structure factor of a crosslinked polymer blend made of two chemically incompatible polymer A and B, when it is suddenly cooled down from a high initial temperature towards a final one very close to the spinodal point....

Mesoscopic structure of the periodically alternating layers of stretched-homopolymer chains surrounded by perpendicularly oriented oligomeric tails is studied for the systems with both strong (ionic) and weak (hydrogen) interactions. Our approach is based on the fact that the structure period is...

Among the stationary configurations of the Hamiltonian of a classical O(n) lattice spin model, a class can be identified which is in one-to-one correspondence with all the configurations of an Ising model defined on the same lattice and with the same interactions. Starting from this observation...

In this paper, using both analytic methods and Monte Carlo simulations with our triangle cluster algorithm, we illustrate the scaling behavior of two possible 4th-order connected energy cumulants across the well-known second and first-order phase transitions of the Baxter–Wu model under zero...

After a brief general overview of Monte Carlo computer simulations in statistical physics, special emphasis is placed on applications to phase transitions and critical phenomena. Here, standard simulations employing local update algorithms are severely hampered by the problem of critical slowing...

Data compressors available in the web have been used to determine magnetic phases for two-dimensional (2D) systems [E. Vogel, G. Saravia, F. Bachmann, B. Fierro, J. Fischer, Phase transitions in Edwards-Anderson model by means of information theory, Physica A 388 2009 4075–4082]. In the...

A quantum spherical version of the site-random XY model in the presence of random field is presented in the boson space. In the phase diagram drawn as a function of the strength of random field, we find that the ferromagnetic and spin-glass phases are reduced by quantum fluctuations and...
