Phase Coexistence in Clusters
An analytical cluster wetting model is developed, based on minimization of an expression for the free energy, for solid-liquid equilibrium coexistence states in clusters. For given materials’ characteristic interfacial energies of the solid and liquid phases, the model relates the fraction of the solid-phase area wetted by the liquid to the volume fraction of the two phases. Equilibrium coexist...
متن کاملAgreement Percolation and Phase Coexistence in Some Gibbs Systems
We extend some relations between percolation and the dependence of Gibbs states on boundary conditions known for Ising ferromagnets to other systems and investigate their general validity: percolation is defined in terms of the agreement of a configuration with one of the ground states of the system. This extension is studied via examples and counterexamples, including the antiferromagnetic Isi...
متن کاملSurface Tension and Phase Coexistence for General Lattice Systems 1
We investigate the surface tension between coexisting phases of general discrete lattice systems. In particular the different phases need not be connected by any symmetry, We prove the positivity of the surface tension in the low-temperature regime where the Pirogov-Sinai theory of first-order phase transitions is valid: finite-range Hamiltonian having a finite number of periodic ground states....
متن کاملThree-Phase Coexistence in Lipid Membranes.
Phospholipid ternary systems are useful model systems for understanding lipid-lipid interactions and their influence on biological properties such as cell signaling and protein translocation. Despite extensive studies, there are still open questions relating to membrane phase behavior, particularly relating to a proposed state of three-phase coexistence, due to the difficulty in clearly disting...
متن کاملPhase coexistence in a forecasting game
Individual choices are either based on personal experience or on information provided by peers. The latter case, causes individuals to conform to the majority in their neighborhood. Such herding behavior may be very efficient in aggregating disperse private information, thereby revealing the optimal choice. However if the majority relies on herding, this mechanism may dramatically fail to aggre...
