Abstrakt: Here, we establish an approach to determine temperature-dependent aggregation rates in terms of thermostatistical quantities, which can be obtained directly from flat-histogram and statistical temperature algorithms considering the density of states of the system. Our approach is validated through simulations of an Ising-like model with anisotropically interacting particles at temperatures close to its first-order phase transition. Quantitative comparisons between the numerically obtained forward and reverse rates to approximate analytical expressions corroborate its use as a model-independent approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
