Abstract
We determine the characteristic length scale, L(t), in phase-ordering kinetics for both scalar and vector fields, with either shortor l L(t) consistently by comparing the global rate of energy change to the energy dissipation from the local evolution of the order parameter. We derive growth laws for O(n) and other models, including systems with topological textures.
