Entropic Forces in Binary Hard Sphere Mixtures: Theory and Simulation
We perform extensive Monte Carlo simulations of binary hard-sphere mixtures (with diameter ratios of 5 and 10), to determine the entropic force between (1) a macrosphere and a hard wall, and (2) a pair of macrospheres. The microsphere background fluid (at volume fractions ranging from 0.1 to 0.34) induces an entropic force on the macrosphere(s); the latter component is at infinite dilution. We ...
متن کاملTheory of asymmetric nonadditive binary hard-sphere mixtures.
It is shown that the formal procedure of integrating out the degrees of freedom of the small spheres in a binary hard-sphere mixture works equally well for nonadditive as it does for additive mixtures. For highly asymmetric mixtures (small size ratios) the resulting effective Hamiltonian of the one-component fluid of big spheres, which consists of an infinite number of many-body interactions, s...
متن کاملDemixing in binary mixtures of apolar and dipolar hard spheres.
We study the demixing transition of mixtures of equal size hard spheres and dipolar hard spheres using computer simulation and integral equation theories. Calculations are carried out at constant pressure, and it is found that there is a strong correlation between the total density and the composition. The critical temperature and the critical total density are found to increase with pressure. ...
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...
متن کاملRescaled density expansions and demixing in hard-sphere binary mixtures.
The demixing transition of a binary fluid mixture of additive hard spheres is analyzed for different size asymmetries by starting from the exact low-density expansion of the pressure. Already within the second virial approximation the fluid separates into two phases of different composition with a lower consolute critical point. By successively incorporating the third, fourth, and fifth virial ...
