Abstract

We report results of large Monte Carlo simulations of an experimentally realizable random-field system: the three-dimensional dilute Ising antiferromagnetic in a field. We find that the correlation time diverges dramatically as T†'Tc; the results are consistent with a proposed new type of activated dynamic scaling. The transition appears to be continuous, with effective critical exponents =0.5±0.1 and =-1.0±0.3 for strong fields, away from the weak-field regime where crossover effects distort exponent estimates. These strong-field exponents satisfy recently derived inequalities.
