摘要
Monte Carlo simulation of two dimensional 4 state Potts model has been carried out in microcanonical ensemble. The simulations were done on a 30 × 30 system with periodic boundary conditions. The temperature dependence of energy and order parameter has been calculated. The transition in 4-state Potts model is concluded to be first-order in nature. The transition temperature and latent heat of the first-order transition have been found to be 0.92 and 0.18, respectively.
