Abstract
In this work, we present a systematic comparison of the results obtained from the low-frequency Barkhausen noise recordings in nanocrystalline samples with those from the numerical simulations of the random-field Ising model systems. We performed measurements at room temperature on a field-driven metallic glass stripe made of VITROPERM 800 R, a nanocrystalline iron-based material with an excellent combination of soft and magnetic properties, making it a cutting-edge material for a wide range of applications. Given that the Barkhausen noise emissions emerging along a hysteresis curve are stochastic and depend in general on a variety of factors (such as distribution of disorder due to impurities or defects, varied size of crystal grains, type of domain structure, driving rate of the external magnetic field, sample shape and temperature, etc.), adequate theoretical modeling is essential for their interpretation and prediction. Here the Random field Ising model, specifically its athermal nonequilibrium version with the finite driving rate, stands out as an appropriate choice due to the material's nanocrystalline structure and high Curie temperature. We performed a systematic analysis of the signal properties and magnetization avalanches comparing the outcomes of the numerical model and experiments carried out in a two-decade-wide range of the external magnetic field driving rates. Our results reveal that with a suitable choice of parameters, a considerable match with the experimental results is achieved, indicating that this model can accurately describe the Barkhausen noise features in nanocrystalline samples.

Abstract
We investigate the effects of adiabatic, quasistatic, and finite-rate types of driving on the evolution of disordered three-dimensional ferromagnetic systems, studied within the frame of the nonequilibrium athermal random field Ising model. The effects were examined in all three domains of disorder (low, high, and transitional) for all types of driving, and in a wide range of driving rates for quasistatic and finite-rate driving, providing an extensive overview and comparison of the joint effects that the disorder, type of driving, and rate regime have on the system's behavior.

Abstract
We study the zero-temperature steady-state of the random-field Blume-Capel model with spin-flip Glauber dynamics on a random regular graph. The magnetization m as a function of the external field H is observed to have double hysteresis loops with a return point memory. We also solve the model on a Bethe lattice in the approximation that the spin relaxation dynamics is abelian and find good agreement between simulations on random regular graphs and Bethe lattice calculations for negative values of H.

Abstract
We present a numerical study on necessary conditions for the appearance of infinite avalanche below the critical point in disordered systems that evolve throughout metastable states. The representative of those systems is the nonequilibrium athermal random-field Ising model. We investigate the impact on propagation of infinite avalanche of both the interface of flipped spins at the avalanche's starting point and the number of independent islands of flipped spins in the system at the moment when the avalanche starts. To deduce what effects are originated due to finite system's size, and to distinguish them from the real necessary conditions for the appearance of the infinite avalanche, we examined lattices of different sizes as well as other key parameters for the avalanche propagation.

Abstract
In the present paper we investigate the impact of the external noise and detection threshold level on the simulation data for the systems that evolve through metastable states. As a representative model of such systems we chose the nonequilibrium athermal random-field Ising model with two types of the external noise, uniform white noise and Gaussian white noise with various different standard deviations, imposed on the original response signal obtained in model simulations. We applied a wide range of detection threshold levels in analysis of the signal and show how these quantities affect the values of exponent γ_{S/T} (describing the scaling of the average avalanche size with duration), the shift of waiting time between the avalanches, and finally the collapses of the waiting time distributions. The results are obtained via extensive numerical simulations on the equilateral three-dimensional cubic lattices of various sizes and disorders.

Abstract
We present the results of a study providing numerical evidence for the absence of critical behavior of the nonequilibrium athermal random-field Ising model in adiabatic regime on the hexagonal two-dimensional lattice. The results are obtained on the systems containing up to 32768×32768 spins and are the averages of up to 1700 runs with different random-field configurations per each value of disorder. We analyzed regular systems as well as the systems with different preset conditions to capture behavior in thermodynamic limit. The superficial insight to the avalanche propagation in this type of lattice is given as a stimulus for further research on the topic of avalanche evolution. With obtained data we may conclude that there is no critical behavior of random-field Ising model on hexagonal lattice which is a result that differs from the ones found for the square and for the triangular lattices supporting the recent conjecture that the number of nearest neighbors affects the model criticality.

Abstract
We present numerical findings on the behavior of the athermal nonequilibrium random-field Ising model of spins at the thin striplike L_{1}×L_{2}×L_{3} cubic lattices with L_{1}<L_{2}<L_{3}. Changing of system sizes highly influences the evolution and shape of avalanches. The smallest avalanches [classified as three-dimension- (3D) like] are unaffected by the system boundaries, the larger are sandwiched between the top and bottom system faces so are 2D-like, while the largest are extended over the system lateral cross section and propagate along the length L_{3} like in 1D systems. Such a structure of avalanches causes double power-law distributions of their size, duration, and energy with larger effective critical exponent corresponding to 3D-like and smaller to 2D-like avalanches. The distributions scale with thickness L_{1} and are collapsible following the proposed scaling predictions which, together with the distributions' shape, might be important for analysis of the Barkhausen noise experimental data for striplike samples. Finally, the impact of system size on external field that triggers the largest avalanche for a given disorder is presented and discussed.

Abstract
In the present study of the nonequilibrium athermal random-field Ising model we focus on the behavior of the critical disorder R_{c}(l) and the critical magnetic field H_{c}(l) under different boundary conditions when the system thickness l varies. We propose expressions for R_{c}(l) and H_{c}(l) as well as for the effective critical disorder R_{c}^{eff}(l,L) and effective critical magnetic field H_{c}^{eff}(l,L) playing the role of the effective critical parameters for the L×L×l lattices of finite lateral size L. We support these expressions by the scaling collapses of the magnetization and susceptibility curves obtained in extensive simulations. The collapses are achieved with the two-dimensional (2D) exponents for l below some characteristic value, providing thus a numerical evidence that the thin systems exhibit a 2D-like criticality which should be relevant for the experimental analyses of thin ferromagnetic samples.

Abstract
The interplay between the critical fluctuations and the sample geometry is investigated numerically using thin random-field ferromagnets exhibiting the field-driven magnetisation reversal on the hysteresis loop. The system is studied along the theoretical critical line in the plane of random-field disorder and thickness. The thickness is varied to consider samples of various geometry between a two-dimensional plane and a complete three-dimensional lattice with an open boundary in the direction of the growing thickness. We perform a multi-fractal analysis of the Barkhausen noise signals and scaling of the critical avalanches of the domain wall motion. Our results reveal that, for sufficiently small thickness, the sample geometry profoundly affects the dynamics by modifying the spectral segments that represent small fluctuations and promoting the time-scale dependent multi-fractality. Meanwhile, the avalanche distributions display two distinct power-law regions, in contrast to those in the two-dimensional limit, and the average avalanche shapes are asymmetric. With increasing thickness, the scaling characteristics and the multi-fractal spectrum in thicker samples gradually approach the hysteresis loop criticality in three-dimensional systems. Thin ferromagnetic films are growing in importance technologically, and our results illustrate some new features of the domain wall dynamics induced by magnetisation reversal in these systems.

Abstract
We present a numerical study of the correlations in the occurrence times of consecutive crackling noise events in the nonequilibrium zero-temperature Random Field Ising model in three dimensions. The critical behavior of the system is portrayed by the intermittent bursts of activity known as avalanches with scale-invariant properties which are power-law distributed. Our findings, based on the scaling analysis and collapse of data collected in extensive simulations show that the observed correlations emerge upon applying a finite threshold to the pertaining signals when defining events of interest. Such events are called subavalanches and are obtained by separation of original avalanches in the thresholding process. The correlations are evidenced by power law distributed waiting times and are present in the system even when the original avalanche triggerings are described by a random uncorrelated process.
