Abstract

We study domain distributions in the one-dimensional Ising model subject to zero-temperature Glauber and Kawasaki dynamics. The survival probability of a domain, S(t)∼t −ψ, and an unreacted domain, Q 1(t)∼t −δ, are characterized by two independent nontrivial exponents. We develop an independent interval approximation that provides close estimates for many characteristics of the domain length and number distributions including the scaling exponents.
