ESpinS - Esfahan Spin Simulation package
ESpinS, Esfahan Spin Simulation package, is a classical Monte-Carlo simulation package for the calculation of thermodynamic properties of magnetic material. In ESpinS, the spin model hamiltonian of a spin system can be defined through the Heisenberg exchange, bi-quadratic, Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya, and single-ion interactions. Spin configurations can be updated through either local Metropolis updating or parallel tempering.
The package is freely available under the GPL license (see https://github.com/nafiserb/ESpinS).
The theoretical background is summarized in this paper:
Nafise Rezaei, Mojtaba Alaei, Hadi Akbarzadeh, ESpinS: A program for classical Monte-Carlo simulations of spin systems, Computational Materials Science, 202, 110947 (2022).
The package requires the following software:
- Fortran 90 compiler, such as GFortran or IFORT
- BLAS and LAPACK library
- MPI library (openmpi)
About
ESpinS was written by Nafise Rezaei (main developer) and Mojtaba Alaei. Some subroutines were taken from the wannier90 package and were modified according to special purposes.
