26 Jun 2006 | | Subject: | Statistical Mechanics | | Abstract: | We revisit the sandpile model with ``sticky’’ grains introduced by Mohanty and Dhar [Phys. Rev. Lett. {f 89}, 104303 (2002)] whose scaling properties were claimed to be in the universality class of directed percolation for both isotropic and directed models. Simulations in the so-called fixed-energy ensemble show that this conclusion is not valid for isotropic sandpiles and that this model shares the same critical properties of other stochastic sandpiles, such as the Manna model. %as expected from the existence of an extra %conservation-law, absent in directed percolation. These results are strengthened by the analysis of the Langevin equations proposed by the same authors to account for this problem which we show to converge, upon coarse-graining, to the well-established set of Langevin equations for the Manna class. Therefore, the presence of a conservation law keeps isotropic sandpiles, with or without stickiness, away from the directed percolation class. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0606652 | | Other source: | [GID 875472] pmid17279864 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
