Abstract

The standard two-dimensional uniformly driven diffusive model is simulated extensively for much larger systems with a multi-spin coding technique. The nonequilibrium phase transition is analyzed with anisotropic finite-size scaling both at the critical point and off the critical point. The field-theoretic values of critical exponents fit the data well at and aboveT c . BelowT c the scaling is rather difficult and the results are not conclusive.
