Namely, we show that the introduction of thermal noise in invasion percolation (IP) brings the system outside the critical point. This result suggests a possible definition of self-organized criticality systems as ordinary critical systems where the critical point corresponds to set to 0 one of the parameters. We recover both the IP and Eden models for T⃗0 and T⃗∞, respectively. For small T we find a dynamical second-order transition with correlation length diverging when T⃗0. publisher: American Physical Society date: 2000-12 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Gabrielli, Andrea and Caldarelli, Guido and Pietronero, Luciano Invasion percolation with temperature and the nature of self-organized criticality in real systems.
