| contents | In this work, we revisited the Ziff-Gullari-Barshad (ZGB) model in order to investigate its critical behavior when carbon monoxide (CO) molecules are allowed to desorb from the catalytic surface. As shown by several authors, when this kind of desorption takes place, the first-order phase transition of the standard model disappears, and an Ising-like critical point is found for a very small value of the desorption rate. However, our time-dependent Monte Carlo simulations reveal that, instead of a single critical point, there exists a critical line that encompasses multiple universality classes, passing through the three- and four-state Potts points, as well as, the Ising one, resulting in an unprecedented critical line of weak universality. |
