Self-organised criticality in the evolution of a thermodynamic model of rodent thermoregulatory huddling [PDF]
A thermodynamic model of thermoregulatory huddling interactions between endotherms is developed. The model is presented as a Monte Carlo algorithm in which animals are iteratively exchanged between groups, with a probability of exchanging groups defined ...

Flux creep in type-II superconductors: self-organized criticality approach
We consider the current density distribution function of a flux creep regime in type-II superconductors by mapping the flux creep process to the dynamics of a model with a self-organized criticality. We use an extremal Robin Hood type model which evolves

Fallback accretion on to a newborn magnetar : long GRBs with giant X-ray flares [PDF]
Flares in the X-ray afterglow of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) share more characteristics with the prompt emission than the afterglow, such as pulse profile and contained fluence.
