Competition of percolation and phase separation in a fluid of adhesive hard spheres.
Using a combination of Monte Carlo techniques, we locate the liquid-vapor critical point of adhesive hard spheres. We find that the critical point lies deep inside the gel region of the phase diagram. The (reduced) critical temperature and density are tau(c)=0.1133+/-0.0005 and rho(c)=0.508+/-0.01. We compare these results with the available theoretical predictions. Using a finite-size scaling ...
متن کاملFluid-fluid phase separation in hard spheres with a bimodal size distribution
– The effect of polydispersity on the phase behaviour of hard spheres is examined using a moment projection method. It is found that the Boublik-Mansoori-Carnahan-StarlingLeland equation of state shows a spinodal instability for a bimodal distribution if the large spheres are sufficiently polydisperse, and if there is sufficient disparity in mean size between the small and large spheres. The sp...
متن کاملFluid-solid phase separation in hard-sphere mixtures is unrelated to bond percolation
In a recent Letter, Buhot [1] proposes that entropy driven phase separation in hard-core binary mixtures is directly related to a bond-percolation transition. In particular, Buhot suggests that a phase instability occurs when the coordination number n b , defined as n b r l Z s l #r#s l ͑11R͒ g ll ͑r͒ dr , (1) is equal to zp c , where z is the coordination number of a particular crystal lattice, ...
متن کاملa contrastive study of rhetorical functions of citation in iranian and international elt scopus journals
writing an academic article requires the researchers to provide support for their works by learning how to cite the works of others. various studies regarding the analysis of citation in m.a theses have been done, while little work has been done on comparison of citations among elt scopus journal articles, and so the dearth of research in this area demands for further investigation into citatio...
assessment of deep word knowledge in elementary and advanced iranian efl learners: a comparison of selective and productive wat tasks
testing plays a vital role in any language teaching program. it allows teachers and stakeholders, including program administrators, parents, admissions officers and prospective employers to be assured that the learners are progressing according to an accepted standard (douglas, 2010). the problems currently facing language testers have both practical and theoretical implications but the first i...
