Abstract
In this paper we consider a percolation model where the probability p for a site to be occupied increases linearly in time, from 0 to 1. We analyze th e way the largest cluster grows in time, and in particular, we study the st atistics of the "jumps" in the mass of the largest cluster. and of the time delay between those events, Different critical behaviors are observed belo w and above the percolation threshold, We propose a theoretical analysis, a nd we check our results against direct numerical simulations.
