Abstract

We calculated the response functions and its power spectrum for the total energy dissipation in the ”running” sandpile model proposed by Hwa and Kardar, using a mode-coupling theory and utilizing the renormalization group recursion relations for the renormalized parameters of the theory. For the total energy response function we find significant difference with the results of Hwa and Kardar obtained using heuristic arguments. Simulations of the ”running” sandpile model yield results in agreement with our mode-coupling theory predictions.
