Abstract
We find that when two or more spanning clusters exist at the percolati on threshold, the mass of each scales with the same fractal dimension D = 1.89 in two dimensions and D = 2.53 in three dimensions. We also d etermine the ratios of the masses of the spanning clusters. In two dim ensions, this is done for different lattices of different shapes. In t he case of two spanning clusters, the ratio of the larger spanning clu ster to the smaller lies around 1.4 for two dimensions, almost indepen dent of lattice structure and shape.
