Nine sets of parameters controlling the microscopic details of this second order phase transition have been tested. The corresponding critical exponents are independent (within $2\\sigma$) of these microscopic details, and the average value $1.63\\pm0.05$ is in very good agreement with the numerically predicted value, $\\nu = 1.58$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-08-02T17:32:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "64.70.Tg", "03.75.-b", "05.45.Mt", "72.15.Rn" ], "keywords": [ "anderson transition", "experimental test", "universality", "second order phase transition", "dimensional metal-insulator transition" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2012, "month": "Mar", "volume": 108, "number": 9, "pages": "095701" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012PhRvL.108i5701L" } } }
