摘要
The dynamics of uniaxially (along the z direction) anisotropic Heisenberg ferromagnets (in three dimensions) in the presence of a magnetic field varying sinusoidally in time (along the x-direction only) is studied by Monte Carlo method using Metropolis rate. The time averaged (over a complete cycle of the oscillating field) value of z component of the magnetization continuously vanishes at a particular transition temperature associated with a dynamic symmetry breaking of m(z) - h(x) loop. The temperature variation of dynamic order parameter and the dynamic specific heat for different values of the anisotropy show that the transition temperature increases as the strength of anisotropy increases.
