Universal scaling behavior at the upper critical dimension of non-equilibrium continuous phase transitions
In this work we analyze the universal scaling functions and the critical
exponents at the upper critical dimension of a continuous phase transition. The
consideration of the universal scaling behavior yields a decisive check of the
value of the upper critical dimension. We apply our method to a non-equilibrium
continuous phase transition. But focusing on the equation of state of the phase
transition it is easy to extend our analysis to all equilibrium and
non-equilibrium phase transitions observed numerically or experimentally.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
