Shear simulations in the 2d-Ising model — •David Winter1, Peter Virnau1, Jürgen Horbach2, and Kurt Binder1 — 1Institut für Physik, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz — 2Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR), Köln
We study the critical behavior of the two dimensional Ising model under shear with Monte Carlo simulations. The system shows a strong anisotropy and one observes two different correlation lengths. By applying anisotropic finite-size scaling techniques we find that the critical point is shifted towards higher temperatures as a function of the shear rate.
