# mcising

mcising is a Python package for generating Ising model data using Metropolis algorithm. It works for square lattices, and for nearest neighbor and next nearest neighbor interactions. The Monte-Carlo method it uses, has the cool-down approach to avoid semi stable states.

## Installation

You can install the package using pip:

`pip install mcising`

## Usage

You can generate Ising model data from the command line:

`generate_ising_data <seed> <lattice_size> <num_configs> <j1> <j2> [--T_init <T_init>] [--T_final <T_final>] [--T_step <T_step>] [--sweep_steps <sweep_steps>] [--thermalization_scans <thermalization_scans>] [--calculate_correlation]`

`seed`: the random seed for reproducibility

`lattice_size`: the system size L of the square lattice LxL

`num_configs`: number of configurations to be saved per temperature

`j1` and `j2`: the interaction strengths, `j1` for nearest neighbor and `j2` for next nearest neighbor

`T_init` and `T_final`: initial and final temperatures, initial being higher

`T_step`: the step in between each temperature point

`sweep_steps`: number of Monte-Carlo sweeps per step

`thermalization_scans`: number of sweeps on each temperature step to ensure thermalization

`calculate_correlation`: option to select if correlation function and correlation length should be calculated, since they are time consuming.

An example usage:

```console
generate_ising_data 42 10 100 1.0 0.5 --T_init 4.0 --T_final 0.1 --T_step 0.05 --sweep_steps 10 --thermalization_scans 5 --calculate_correlation
```
