Dynamic phase transition in the three-dimensional kinetic Ising model in an oscillating field

Abstract

Using numerical simulations, we investigate the properties of the dynamic phase transition that is encountered in the three-dimensional Ising model subjected to a periodically oscillating magnetic field. The values of the critical exponents are determined through finite-size scaling. Our results show that the studied nonequilibrium phase transition belongs to the universality class of the equilibrium three-dimensional Ising model.
