Abstract
Using Monte Carlo simulations, we studied the structure factor S (q) of the two-dimensional (2D) random field Ising model (RFIM) with a binary probability distribution. We observe that S (q) changes its lineshape from Lorentzian to a Lorentzian-three half form, (LRZ)3/2 as the random field and temperature are lowered. The time dependent structure factor S (q, t) after a quench from a paramagnetic phase to low temperatures is also studied. These results can provide a better understanding of diffraction scattering experiments performed on RFIM.
