AI Thread Summary

In Monte Carlo simulations using the Wolff algorithm for the 2D/3D Ising and classical 3D Heisenberg models, a common guideline is to set decorrelation steps to 10 times the lattice size (10*L) to ensure independent measurements of observables, especially near critical temperatures. This recommendation aims to minimize autocorrelation in the data collected during simulations. However, the effectiveness of this rule can vary based on specific system parameters and conditions. Researchers are encouraged to validate the decorrelation step by monitoring the convergence of observables. Ultimately, ensuring adequate decorrelation is crucial for obtaining reliable simulation results.

TL;DR Summary: Decorrelation steps in Wolff algorithm

Hello all,

I am doing a monte Carlo simulation using Wolff algorithm for the 2D/3D Ising and classical 3D Heisenberg model, I have been told that the rule of thumb is to make your decorrelation steps = 10*L where L is the size of lattice, and this is would be sufficient enough to make independent measurements for observables even near the critical temperature

So what is recommendation really ?

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks

Thread 'Linear generator prototype'

i want to just test a linear generator with galvanometer , the magnet is N28 and the wire (Cu) is of 0.6mm thikness and 10m long , but galvanometer dont show anthing , The core is PLA material (3d printed) The magnet size if 28mm * 10mm * 5mm

Thread 'Fundamental Probability'

If the universe is fundamentally probabilistic, and all possible outcomes are realized in some branch of the multiverse, does that invalidate the concept of scientific inquiry? If knowledge is merely a description of one particular branch of reality, does it have any inherent value?
