Memory Effect, Rejuvenation and Chaos Effect in the Multi-layer Random Energy Model
We introduce magnetization to the Multi-layer Random Energy Model which has a
hierarchical structure, and perform Monte Carlo simulation to observe the
behavior of ac-susceptibility. We find that this model is able to reproduce
three prominent features of spin glasses, i.e., memory effect, rejuvenation and
chaos effect, which were found recently by various experiments on aging
phenomena with temperature variations.Comment: 10 pages, 14 figures, to be submitted to J. Phys. Soc. Jp
Scaling Law and Aging Phenomena in the Random Energy Model
We study the effect of temperature shift on aging phenomena in the Random
Energy Model (REM). From calculation on the correlation function and simulation
on the Zero-Field-Cooled magnetization, we find that the REM satisfies a
scaling relation even if temperature is shifted. Furthermore, this scaling
property naturally leads to results obtained in experiment and the droplet
theory.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures, to be submitted to J. Phys. Soc. Jp
Extraction of the Spin Glass Correlation Length
The peak of the spin glass relaxation rate, S(t)=d{-M_{TRM}(t,t_w)}/H/{d ln
t}, is directly related to the typical value of the free energy barrier which
can be explored over experimental time scales. A change in magnetic field H
generates an energy E_z={N_s}{X_fc}{H^2} by which the barrier heights are
reduced, where X_{fc} is the field cooled susceptibility per spin, and N_s is
the number of correlated spins. The shift of the peak of S(t) gives E_z,
generating the correlation length, Ksi(t,T), for Cu:Mn 6at.% and
CdCr_{1.7}In_{0.3}S_4. Fits to power law dynamics, Ksi(t,T)\propto
{t}^{\alpha(T)} and activated dynamics Ksi(t,T) \propto {ln t}^{1/psi} compare
well with simulation fits, but possess too small a prefactor for activated
dynamics.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures. Department of Physics, University of California,

Numerical Study of Aging in the Generalized Random Energy Model
Magnetizations are introduced to the Generalized Random Energy Model (GREM)
and numerical simulations on ac susceptibility is made for direct comparison
with experiments in glassy materials. Prominent dynamical natures of spin
glasses, {\it i.e.}, {\em memory} effect and {\em reinitialization}, are
reproduced well in the GREM. The existence of many layers causing continuous
transitions is very important for the two natures. Results of experiments in
other glassy materials such as polymers, supercooled glycerol and orientational
glasses, which are contrast to those in spin glasses, are interpreted well by
the Single-layer Random Energy Model.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figures, to be submitted to J. Phys. Soc. Jp
Relaxation of the field-cooled magnetization of an Ising spin glass
The time and temperature dependence of the field-cooled magnetization of a
three dimensional Ising spin glass, Fe_{0.5}Mn_{0.5}TiO_{3}, has been
investigated. The temperature and cooling rate dependence is found to exhibit
memory phenomena that can be related to the memory behavior of the low
frequency ac-susceptibility. The results add some further understanding on how
to model the three dimensional Ising spin glass in real space.Comment: 8 pages RevTEX, 5 figure

Off-Equilibrium Dynamics in Finite-Dimensional Spin Glass Models
The low temperature dynamics of the two- and three-dimensional Ising spin
glass model with Gaussian couplings is investigated via extensive Monte Carlo
simulations. We find an algebraic decay of the remanent magnetization. For the
autocorrelation function a typical
aging scenario with a scaling is established. Investigating spatial
correlations we find an algebraic growth law of
the average domain size. The spatial correlation function scales with . The sensitivity of the
correlations in the spin glass phase with respect to temperature changes is
examined by calculating a time dependent overlap length. In the two dimensional
model we examine domain growth with a new method: First we determine the exact
ground states of the various samples (of system sizes up to )
and then we calculate the correlations between this state and the states
generated during a Monte Carlo simulation.Comment: 38 pages, RevTeX, 14 postscript figure
Origin of increased helium density inside bubbles in Ni(1-x)Fex alloys
Due to virtually no solubility, He atoms implanted or created inside materials tend to form bubbles, which are known to damage material properties through embrittlement. Higher He density in nano-sized bubbles was observed both experimentally and computationally in Ni(100-x)Fex-alloy samples compared to Ni. The bubbles in the Ni(100-x)Fex-alloys were observed to be faceted, whereas in elemental Ni they were more spherical. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that stacking fault structures formed around bubbles at maximum He density. Higher Fe concentrations stabilize stacking fault structures, suppress evolution of dislocation network around bubbles and suppress complete dislocation emission, leading to higher He density.

Spin glass overlap barriers in three and four dimensions
For the Edwards-Anderson Ising spin-glass model in three and four dimensions
(3d and 4d) we have performed high statistics Monte Carlo calculations of those
free-energy barriers which are visible in the probability density
of the Parisi overlap parameter . The calculations rely on the
recently introduced multi-overlap algorithm. In both dimensions, within the
limits of lattice sizes investigated, these barriers are found to be
non-self-averaging and the same is true for the autocorrelation times of our
algorithm. Further, we present evidence that barriers hidden in dominate
the canonical autocorrelation times.Comment: 20 pages, Latex, 12 Postscript figures, revised version to appear in
