Abstract
The phase ordering dynamics of a system following an instantaneous quench have been well studied but such dynamics have been relatively less explored when the quench occurs at a finite rate. I will describe our analytical and numerical results on a kinetic Ising model and a zero range process when the system is annealed slowly to the critical point. Starting from the time-evolution equations, we derive the Kibble-Zurek scaling laws for the defect density at the critical point and elucidate the role of critical coarsening in the approach to the critical point.
