Moment analysis of the probability distributions of different sandpile models

We reconsider the moment analysis of the Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld and the Manna sandpile model in two and three dimensions. In contrast to recently performed investigations our analysis turns out that the models are characterized by different scaling behavior, i.e., they belong to different universality classes.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures, accepted for publication in Physical Review
