We use a standard Metropolis Monte Carlo algorithm at a fictitious temperature T', combined with a numerical integration method for the calculation of the entropy in order to evaluate the actual temperature T. We illustrate the method by applying it to the 2d-Ising model using a standard reweighting technique.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-11-04T17:28:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "monte carlo method", "tsallis statistics", "numerical simulation", "standard metropolis monte carlo algorithm", "standard reweighting technique" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
