Branching points in the low-temperature dipolar hard sphere fluid.
In this contribution, we investigate the low-temperature, low-density behaviour of dipolar hard-sphere (DHS) particles, i.e., hard spheres with dipoles embedded in their centre. We aim at describing the DHS fluid in terms of a network of chains and rings (the fundamental clusters) held together by branching points (defects) of different nature. We first introduce a systematic way of classifying...
متن کاملThe Chiral Dipolar Hard Sphere Model
A simple molecular model of chiral molecules is presented in this paper : the chiral dipolar hard sphere model. The discriminatory interaction between enantiomers is represented by electrostatic (or magnetic) dipoles-dipoles interactions : short ranged steric repulsion are represented by hard sphere potential and, in each molecule, two point dipoles are located inside the sphere. The model is d...
متن کاملModel energy landscapes of low-temperature fluids: Dipolar hard spheres.
An analytical model of non-Gaussian energy landscape of low-temperature fluids is developed based on the thermodynamics of the fluid of dipolar hard spheres. The entire excitation profile of the liquid, from the high-temperature liquid to the point of ideal-glass transition, has been obtained from Monte Carlo simulations. The fluid of dipolar hard spheres loses stability close to the point of i...
متن کاملGaussian statistics of the hard-sphere fluid
By computer simulation of the hard-sphere fluid, we have determined the probabilities of observing N molecular centers within molecular sized volumes of the fluid. These probability distributions are found to be almost exactly Gaussian at medium densities. A maximum entropy prediction constructed from knowledge of the first two moments of the distribution and a prior distribution consistent wit...
متن کاملTransient cavities and the excess chemical potentials of hard-spheroid solutes in dipolar hard-sphere solvents.
Monte Carlo computer simulations are used to study transient cavities and the solvation of hard-spheroid solutes in dipolar hard-sphere solvents. The probability distribution of spheroidal cavities in the solvent is shown to be well described by a Gaussian function, and the variations of fit parameters with cavity elongation and solvent properties are analyzed. The excess chemical potentials of...
