A Monte Carlo Study of the Dipolar Universality Class in Three Dimensions (opens in new tab)

The dipolar universality class describes the phase transition in 3D ferromagnets with strong dipolar interactions, as first discussed by Aharony and Fisher in the 1970s. While this universality class has been studied theoretically using renormalization group methods, as well as experimentally, little is known about it from Monte Carlo simulations. In this paper we aim to bridge this gap. We introduce a lattice model that faithfully implements ...
