Description: Vegas: Software package for the atomistic simulation of magnetic materials. We present an open-source software package, Vegas, for the atomistic simulation of magnetic materials. Using the classical Heisenberg model and the Monte Carlo Metropolis algorithm, Vegas provides the required tools to simulate and analyze magnetic phenomena of a great variety of systems. Vegas stores the history of the simulation, i.e. the magnetization and energy of the system at every time step, allowing to analyze static and dynamic magnetic phenomena from results obtained in a single simulation. Also, standardized input and output file formats are employed to facilitate the simulation process and the exchange and archiving of data. We include results from simulations performed using Vegas, showing its applicability to study different magnetic phenomena Homepage: https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.07030 Keywords: Computational Physics; arXiv_physics.comp-ph; atomistic simulation; classical spin model; Monte Carlo method; magnetic phenomena Related Software: PovRay; ALPS; HDFView Cited in: 0 Documents Standard Articles 1 Publication describing the Software Year Vegas: Software package for the atomistic simulation of magnetic materials arXiv J.D.
