Abstract
We carry out a high-precision simulation of the two-dimensional SU(3) principal chiral model at correlation lengths xi up to approximate to 4x10(5), using a multigrid Monte Carlo (MGMC) algorithm. We extrapolate the finite-volume Monte Carlo data to infinite volume using finite-size-scaling theory, and we discuss carefully the systematic and statistical errors in this extrapolation. We then compare the extrapolated data to the renormalization-group predictions. For xi greater than or equal to 10(3) we observe good asymptotic scaling in the hare coupling; at xi approximate to 4X10(5) the nonperturbative constant is within 2-3% of its predicted limiting value.
