Abstract Based on the single-spin transition critical dynamics, we have investigated the critical slowing down of the Gaussian spin model situated on the fractal family of diamond-type hierarchical lattices. We calculate the dynamical critical exponent z and the correlation-length critical exponent $\nu$ using the dynamical decimation renormalization-group technique. The result, together with some earlier ones, suggests us to conclude that on a wide range of geometries, z$\nu$=1 is the general relationship, while the two exponents depend on the specific structure. However, we have investigated for various lattices in an earlier paper, the system studied in this paper shows highly universal z=1/$\nu$=2 independent of the structure and the dimensionality.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
