These simulations were
created by Uri Lev as a final project for a course on
Computational Physics. Any questions can be
addressed to Joan Adler: phr76ja@ef.technion.ac.il.

Below are some figures of the initial lattice
after occupation and the same lattice after culling. The occupation probability was
chosen so that p > pc. Different m parameters were chosen to reflect
the possibilities. The
two figures for each case are the initial (on the left) and
last (on the right) frames of a short animation of the culling
process, which appears below.
