We investigate the critical behavior of a stochastic lattice model describing a General Epidemic Process. By means of a Monte Carlo procedure, we simulate the model on a regular square lattice and follow the spreading of an epidemic process with immunization. A finite size scaling analysis is...

In this work we study the critical behavior of a model that simulates the propagation of an epidemic process over a population. We simulate the model on two-dimensional finite lattices to determine the critical density of the diffusive population. A finite size scaling analysis is employed to...
