ResumoWe study the phase diagram and critical behavior of the one-dimensional pair contact process (PCP) with a particle source using cluster approximations and extensive simulations. The source creates isolated particles only, not pairs, and so couples not to the order parameter (the pair density) but to a nonordering field, whose state influences the evolution of the order parameter. While the critical point ${p}_{c}$ shows a singular dependence on the source intensity, the critical exponents appear to be unaffected by the presence of the source, except possibly for a small change in \ensuremath{\beta}. In the course of our paper, we obtain high-precision values for the critical exponents of the standard PCP, confirming directed-percolationlike scaling.
