Density anomalies and reentrant spinodal behavior *
A lattice model that displays anomalous density behavior and exhibits a reentrant spinodal is developed. This model is solved in the mean field approximation and the interrelation between density maxima and the reentrance of the spinodal is explicitly demonstrated. The limits of stability of the liquid phase are obtained at positive as well as negative pressures, and the nature of the limits of...
متن کاملReentrant behavior of the spinodal curve in a nonequilibrium ferromagnet.
The metastable behavior of a kinetic Ising-type ferromagnetic model system in which a generic type of microscopic disorder induces nonequilibrium steady states is studied by computer simulation and a mean-field approach. We pay attention, in particular, to the spinodal curve or intrinsic coercive field that separates the metastable region from the unstable one. We find that, under strong nonequ...
متن کاملDynamical density functional theory and its application to spinodal decomposition.
We present an alternative derivation of the dynamical density functional theory for the one-body density profile of a classical fluid developed by Marconi and Tarazona [J. Chem. Phys. 110, 8032 (1999)]. Our derivation elucidates further some of the physical assumptions inherent in the theory and shows that it is not restricted to fluids composed of particles interacting solely via pair potentia...
متن کاملEntropy-Driven Reentrant Behavior in CMR Manganites
We discuss the origin of the reentrant behaviors of insulating states above the Curie temperature of the colossal magnetoresistance manganites. We consider a system where charge ordering and ferromagnetism compete with each other. In the presence of randomness which pins charge order fluctuations, entropy-driven reentrant behaviors will appear, which explains the typical temperature dependence ...
متن کاملDensity fluctuations in the presence of spinodal instabilities.
Density fluctuations resulting from spinodal decomposition in a nonequilibrium first-order chiral phase transition are explored. We show that such instabilities generate divergent fluctuations of conserved charges along the isothermal spinodal lines appearing in the coexistence region. Thus, divergent density fluctuations could be a signal not only for the critical end point but also for the fi...
