The bond-orientational order parameter susceptibility is analyzed for three values of the bending rigidity kappa, and it is found that for sufficiently large kappa the low-temperature hexatic phase melts via a universal Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. These results are consistent with recent theoretical predictions that the crumpled-to-crinkled transition occurs via disclination melting for all bending rigidities and tether lengths. However, our simulations provide evidence that the transition becomes first order at very low bending rigidity.}, keywords = {J (WoSType)}, cin = {IFF-TH-II}, ddc = {530}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)VDB31}, pnm = {Kondensierte Materie}, pid = {G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK242}, shelfmark = {Physics, Multidisciplinary}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000174756300010}, doi = {10.1209/epl/i2002-00606-0}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/45273}, }
