Scaling and universality in the aging kinetics of the two-dimensional clock model.
We study numerically the aging dynamics of the two-dimensional p -state clock model after a quench from an infinite temperature to the ferromagnetic phase or to the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase. The system exhibits the general scaling behavior characteristic of nondisordered coarsening systems. For quenches to the ferromagnetic phase, the value of the dynamical exponents suggests that the model belongs to the Ising-type universality class. Specifically, for the integrated response function chi(t,s) approximately or = s(-a)chif(t/s), we find a(chi) consistent with the value a(chi)=0.28 found in the two-dimensional Ising model.
