Chiral glass of charged DNA rods, cavity loops

The results of the recent numerical simulations on vector spin glasses are presented. Numerical evidence of the novel chiral-glass state, accompanied with broken spin-reflection symmetry with preserving spin-rotation symmetry, is presented. Implication to experiments on spin-glass transitions is discussed.

Chiral Glass

Spin-glass and chiral-glass orderings of a three-dimensional isotropic Heisenberg spin glass are studied both by equilibrium and off-equilibrium Monte Carlo simulations with emphasis on their dynamical aspects. The model is found to exhibit a finite-temperature chiral-glass transition without the conventional spin-glass order. Although chirality is an Ising-like quantity from symmetry, universality class of the chiral-glass transition appears to be different from that of the standard Ising spin glass. In the off-equilibrium simulation, while the spin autocorrelation exhibits only an interrupted aging, the chirality autocorrelation persists to exhibit a pronounced aging effect reminiscent of the one observered in the mean-field model.
