Based on the variational and perturbation theories of liquid state, at equilibrium conditions, an approximation technique is introduced through which it has been made possible the derivation of analytic relations for the thermodynamic properties of simple liquids in which the intermolecular potential can be represented by the Lennard-Jones (m-n) potential function. By the application of the har...

The density profiles of liquid-gas interfaces of binary mixtures are determined by xray reflectivity measurements. The surface tension γ is calculated from the measured data in the framework of the capillary waves theory. It is demonstrated that gradient theory can be used to investigate the van der Waals interaction between the different constituents of the liquid. The determination of Lennard...

The light (L) polypeptide chains of the human T-globulins carry antigenic determinants designated as group 1 or 2 (1-3). Allotypic determinants designated InV have been found in association with the L chains of 3,,-globulin (4). Natural ly occurring human ant ibody directed toward L chain determinants has been described in detail only for the InV antigens (5). The present studies utilize human ...

A new density-functional theory is developed for representing the structural and thermodynamic properties of Lennard-Jones fluids by unifying the modified fundamental measure theory for the short-range repulsion and the first-order mean-spherical approximation ~FMSA! via the energy route for the attractive part of the intermolecular potential. This theory significantly improves the conventional...

Mixtures of Lennard-Jones and Stockmayer molecules provide a convenient model system which can be used to study the effects of composition and polarity in polar/non-polar mixtures. The structure and phase behaviour of such mixtures are currently topics of great interest Eli. Since the Stockmayer potential, qSs, is obtained from the usual Lennard-Jones potential, ~buj, by the sole addition of a ...

We discuss the phenomenon of physical aging in a well studied atomic model liquid, a binary mixture of particles interacting with Lennard-Jones potentials. We put emphasis on the different dynamical behaviours of the model as well as on the relations between the experimental and numerical timescales. The physics of aging is discussed within a well characterized thermodynamic framework, based on...

We reanalyse the cell theory of Lennard-Jones and Devonshire and find that in addition to the critical point originally reported for the 12−6 potential (and widely quoted in standard textbooks), the model exhibits a further critical point. We show that the latter is actually a more appropriate candidate for liquid-gas criticality than the original critical point. Typeset using REVTEX

It is known, that the Leonard–Jones (L–J) potential describes the interaction of atoms of simple non-polar gases [1]. However, at large distances between atoms the interaction forces fall faster, than it is described by the L–J potential [1]. The corresponding corrections (including light atoms) are suggested in papers [2]–[6]. These authors had a suspicion, that, for light atoms, either L–J fo...

An analytical equation of state was applied to calculate the thermodynamic properties for argon.The equation of state is that of Song and Mason. It is based on a statistical-mechanical perturbationtheory of the hard convex bodies and can be written as fifth-order polynomial in the density. Thereexist three temperature-dependent parameters: the second virial coefficient, an effective molecularvo...

We formulate according to the quantum mechanical uncertainty relation a new uncertainty relation ∆ ˘ A · ∆l ∼ ¯ h e where ˘ A and ∆l ≥ l B are the electromagnetic pure gauge potential, the position uncertainty and the magnetic length, respectively. Then, we show that the observed potential drops on the edge of QHE samples are varifications of this uncertainty relation, where the quantum potenti...
