WETTING VELOCITY NEAR THE DIRECTED PERCOLATION-THRESHOLD

Near the directed percolation threshold, pd, the wetting velocity υ scales as (1 - υ) ∼ (pd - p) θ. We extrapolate from calculations on strips of finite width to show that, on the two-dimensional square lattice, θ = 1.73 ± 0.02. This agrees with a scaling argument by Barma and Ray which predicts θ =...
