Orientational ordering anisotropic-planar-rotor model

Figure 33. Herringbone orientational correlation functions F (3.15) in the inset and the logarithmic derivatives 62 In (3.18) as a function of distance I in units of the lattice constant a - 4.26 A in the disordered phase of the anisotropic-planar-rotor model (2.5) from Monte Carlo simulations at 7" = 25.5 K and a linear system size of L = 180. The different symbols distinguish the three symmetty axes a, and the dashed line marks the plateau 2/. In the inset all three F fall on top of each other and the different symbols denote here the two oscillating parts of the antiferromagnetic-like ordering pattern.
