Evaluation of the CPY and PYX approximations for short ranged anisotropie potentials

چکیده
In the first paper in this series, a new integral equation approximation t h e Percus-Yevick excess (PYX) approximation--was introduced and contrasted with the corrected Percus-Yevick (CPY) approximation. In the present paper, these two approximations are evaluated for a molecular fluid, the molecules of which interact via a short ranged anisotropic potential prototypical of the overlap interactions encountered between homonuclear diatomic molecules. We conclude that the CPY and PYX approximations are quite accurate; interestingly, however, they unexpectedly yield very similar results leading us to conclude that, on balance, both approximations are equally good.

متن کاملEvaluation of antioxidant potential and reduction capacity of some plant extracts in silver nanoparticle synthesis
The green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is an active research area in nanotechnology. In the present study, antioxidant potential, total reducing capacity and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) synthetic potential of methanolic leaf extracts of seven plant species were evaluated and compared. Antioxidant capacity, expressed as µmol Trolox equivalents g-1 DW (µmol TE g-1 DW), ranged from 116.0 ...
متن کاملDensity of states of disordered graphene
We calculate the average single-particle density of states in graphene with disorder due to impurity potentials. For unscreened short-ranged impurities, we use the non-self-consistent and self-consistent Born and T-matrix approximations to obtain the self-energy. Among these, only the self-consistent T-matrix approximation gives a nonzero density of states at the Dirac point. The density of sta...

Introduction: Measuring the size of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an investigational technique to show the level of corticospinal excitability however, some of the fundamental methodological aspects of TMS (such as the effects of inter-pulse intervals (IPI) on MEP size) are not fully understood, this issue raises concerns about the re...
متن کاملAssisted stellar suicide: the wind-driven evolution of the recurrent nova T Pyxidis
We show that the extremely high luminosity of the short-period recurrent nova T Pyx in quiescence can be understood if this system is a wind-driven supersoft x-ray source (SSS). In this scenario, a strong, radiationinduced wind is excited from the secondary star and accelerates the binary evolution. The accretion rate is therefore much higher than in an ordinary cataclysmic binary at the same o...
