چکیده

We prove that a system of particles in the plane, interacting only with a certain hard-core constraint, undergoes a fluid-solid phase transition.

Phase behavior of hard spheres with a short-range Yukawa attraction.

The phase diagram of a system consisting of hard spheres with an attractive Yukawa interaction is computed by Monte Carlo simulations. Upon decreasing the range of attraction, we find the following scenarios: (a) a stable fluid-fluid and fluid-solid transition, a triple point with fluid-fluid-solid coexistence, and a metastable isostructural solid-solid transition (b) a fluid-fluid and isostruc...

Elusiveness of fluid-fluid demixing in additive hard-core mixtures.

The conjecture that when an additive hard-core mixture phase separates when one of the phases is spatially ordered, well supported by considerable evidence, is in contradiction with some simulations of a binary mixture of hard cubes on cubic lattices. By extending Rosenfeld's fundamental measure theory to lattice models we show that the phase behavior of this mixture is far more complex than si...

A density functional theory of one- and two-layer freezing in a confined colloid system

We report an analysis of the change in character of the fluid-to-solid transition in a quasi-two-dimensional hard-sphere colloid system as the confining wall separation changes from one to two hard-sphere diameters. Our analysis is based on a study of the bifurcation of solutions of the integral equation for the singlet density, using both direct and pair correlation function representations. T...

Phase diagrams of hard-core repulsive Yukawa particles.

We determine the phase behavior of hard spheres interacting with repulsive Yukawa (screened Coulomb) interaction using computer simulations. We study the effect of the hard-core diameter on the phase behavior of repulsive Yukawa particles by comparing our phase diagrams with that of repulsive point Yukawa particles. We show that for sufficiently high contact values of the pair potential (betaep...

Phase 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...
