Abstract
We study the continuous absorbing-state phase transition in the one-dimensional pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD). In previous studies [Dickman and de Menezes, Phys. Rev. E 66, 045101(R) (2002)], the critical point moment ratios of the order parameter showed anomalous behavior, growing with system size rather than taking universal values, as expected. Using the quasistationary simulation method we determine the moments of the order parameter up to fourth order at the critical point, in systems of up to 40,960 sites. Due to strong finite-size effects, the ratios converge only for large system sizes. Moment ratios and associated order-parameter histograms are compared with those of directed percolation. We also report an improved estimate [pc=0.077092(1)] for the location of the critical point in the nondiffusive pair contact process.
