SUMMARY:Dynamics of 2D Ising Model in Linearly Varying Magnetic Field
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Na Xu\n\nPart of the Preliminary Oral Exam.\n\nExamin
	ing Committee:  Anders Sandvik\, Richard Averitt\, Claudio Rebbi\, Anatoli 
	Polkovnikov\n\nAbstract:\nThe Kibble-Zurek mechanism describes non-equilibr
	ium dynamical behaviour in a system which is driven out of equilibrium at s
	ome finite rate. As some research has been done previously regarding to sys
	tems with quenches in temperature\, and scaling functions has been proposed
	 and tested with quantum and classical models. Here we investigate the 2D I
	sing Model in a linearly varying magnetic field\, where we can apply the sa
	me scaling function but with different critical exponents. Also\, we found 
	interesting power-law behaviour in first order phase transition where T
