### The UppASD code can model Edwards-Anderson spin glasses by the keywords
163
+
Glassy systems
164
+
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
165
+
166
+
As a final challenge, lets consider a spin glass system.
167
+
A simple yet illustrative model for a spin glass system is given by the Edwards-Anderson model, where a nearest neighbour Hamiltonian on a cubic
168
+
lattice, but with random exchange interactions are used.
169
+
170
+
The UppASD code can model Edwards-Anderson spin glasses by the keywords ``ea_model T`` and ``ea_sigma XX`` where ``ea_sigma`` contols
171
+
the width of the Gaussian distribution of the randomized exchange interactions. Disregarding the ``ea_sigma`` keyword for now,
172
+
we can define a simple cubic system with randomized exchange with the following ``inpsd.dat``
173
+
174
+
.. literalinclude:: EdwardsAnderson/inpsd.dat
175
+
176
+
While the ``posfile`` and ``momfile`` are made as easy as possible
177
+
178
+
.. literalinclude:: EdwardsAnderson/posfile
179
+
.. literalinclude:: EdwardsAnderson/momfile
180
+
181
+
Even though the exchange interactions will be randomized, we still have to set up a Hamiltonian with existing couplings since only
182
+
the magnitude and not the directions will be randomized. Thus we use the following ``jfile``
183
+
184
+
.. literalinclude:: EdwardsAnderson/jfile
185
+
186
+
With the glassy system setup. we end this exercise session with a friendly competition:
187
+
188
+
* Without changing the system size and Hamiltonian, apply your thermalization and minimization skills to get the lowest possible energy for this system.
189
+
190
+
The participant with the lowest energy will get a symbolic price during the conference dinner.
