Abstract

Time quantification of Monte Carlo steps is studied by the implementation of a new technique which takes into account the realistic size of thermal fluctuations of magnetization along with Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert dynamic correlations. The computational model has been specifically developed for an ensemble of isolated single-domain particles. The numerical results have been compared with Langevin dynamics calculations and theoretically predicted Brown’s asymptotes for relaxation time of single spin system. In addition we demonstrated that real time quantification of Monte Carlo steps is also possible for different time scales. Implementation of real time scales into Monte Carlo calculations for different sizes of time steps is shown to be convergent to the expected value if the Monte Carlo acceptance rate is taken into account.
