Theory 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 کاملCrystallization and phase separation in nonadditive binary hard-sphere mixtures
We calculate for the first time the full phase diagram of an asymmetric nonadditivehard-sphere mixture. The nonadditivity strongly affects the crystallization and the fluid-fluid phase separation. The global topology of the phase diagram is controlled by an effective size ratio y(eff), while the fluid-solid coexistence scales with the depth of the effective potential well.
متن کاملNonadditive hard-sphere fluid mixtures: a simple analytical theory.
We construct a nonperturbative fully analytical approximation for the thermodynamics and the structure of nonadditive hard-sphere fluid mixtures. The method essentially lies in a heuristic extension of the Percus-Yevick solution for additive hard spheres. Extensive comparison with Monte Carlo simulation data shows a generally good agreement, especially in the case of like-like radial distributi...
متن کاملPhase diagram of highly asymmetric binary hard-sphere mixtures.
We study the phase behavior and structure of highly asymmetric binary hard-sphere mixtures. By first integrating out the degrees of freedom of the small spheres in the partition function we derive a formal expression for the effective Hamiltonian of the large spheres. Then using an explicit pairwise (depletion) potential approximation to this effective Hamiltonian in computer simulations, we de...
متن کاملEntropic 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 ...
