A method for obtaining critical properties is presented. Based on self-organized criticality, it drives the system spontaneously to the critical point, providing an efficient way to estimate critical properties. The method is illustrated for Ising spin systems, and despite the small lattice...

The quenched site-diluted Ising ferromagnet, with a probability p for site occupation, is studied on a square lattice. A method, based on self-organized criticality, drives the system spontaneously to the critical point, providing an efficient way to estimate critical properties for different...
