Avalanches, Barkhausen Noise, and Plain Old Criticality
Open accessAbstract
We explain Barkhausen noise in magnetic systems in terms of avalanches of domains near a plain old critical point in the hysteretic zero-temperature random-field Ising model. The avalanche size distribution has a universal scaling function, making nontrivial predictions of the shape of the distribution up to 50% above the critical point, where two decades of scaling are still observed. We simulate systems with up to ${1000}^{3}$ domains, extract critical exponents in 2, 3, 4, and 5 dimensions, compare with our 2D and $6\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\epsilon}$ predictions, and compare to a variety of experiments.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
