Histogram-based methodology for the determination of the critical point in condensation-evaporation systems

“…Typical quantities monitored in the simulations are the surface coverage θ and energy per site ε which are calculated as simple averages, Histogram reweighting methods are great tools for extracting as much information as possible from a single simulation. This technique is well detailed elsewhere [23][24][25], so here we will provide a short explanation of the subject.…”

“…To remedy this situation, we have developed a methodology that allows to obtain simultaneously the critical coverage and the critical temperature of a typical condensation-evaporation transition from Monte Carlo simulations in the grand canonical ensemble. We perform new Monte Carlo calculations in this ensemble, where the chemical potential is the control parameter, obtaining the fourth order Binder Cumulant with the aid of the Histogram Reweighting (HR) Technique [23][24][25]. We apply this methodology to the study of the phase transition occurring in a system of attractive dimers on square lattices.…”

Methods and Models in Mathematical Biology

“…There is some discussion about the validity of the data, but the trend seems to be reliable [193]. It took some time, until one understood the reason.…”

Archaeologies of Internment

“…Added to this, when in the 1980s a number of painful cultural places, such as Makronisos and Trikeri (a female exile camp), were designated as historic sites, as part of the national reconciliation project (see Close 2002; Ministry of Culture et al 1994:192;Panagiotopoulos 2000), the island of Ai Stratis was not deemed worthy of legal protection. Nevertheless, the then Minister of Culture, Melina Merkouri, issued a ministerial decree according to which the state undertook the responsibility of procuring a building to house a Museum of Ai Stratis.…”
