Abstract

Three methods of extracting the correlation time from the decay of time-displaced-correlation-functions are discussed. One of the methods is used to determine correlation times for Monte Carlo simulations of the d=2 Ising model on square lattices with L=6,8,10 and 12. From these results, we estimate the dynamical critical exponent to be z = 2.121±0.008 in agreement with recent Monte Carlo results.
