Abstract

The residual magnetic entropy is calculated for the short-range Edwards-Anderson spin-glass model by the Monte Carlo method. For slow cooling, a finite value of the residual magnetic entropy is obtained, which depends only weakly on the cooling rate. A comparison with available information about the total density of states and the density of metastable states suggests that the residual magnetic entropy is determined by the density of metastable states at the residual energy of the spin glass at zero temperature.
