Lennard-Jones-Devonshire equation of state is an old but theoretical based EOS. The concept of the nearest neighboring molecules or coordination number is proposed to be a function of temperature and volume, whereas it is a constant in the original. The dilute gas and hard sphere limits of molecules are employed to determine this function. Improvement of this modification is demonstrated by pro...

A cluster is a group of identical molecules or atoms loosely bound by inter-atomic forces. The optimal geometry minimizes the potential energy — usually modelled as the Lennard-Jones potential — of the cluster. The minimization of the Lennard-Jones potential is a very difficult global optimization problem with extremely many local minima. In addition to cluster problems, the Lennard-Jones poten...

Smit and Frenkel’ have shown that the phase diagram of the two-dimensional Lennard-Jones fluid depends largely on the details of the truncation of the potential. In this Note, Gibbs-ensemble calculations are reported for the three-dimensional Lennard-Jones fluid. As expected, the phase diagram for this system also depends significantly on the details of the truncation. The Lennard-Jones potenti...

We explain the findings by Di Leonardo et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 6054 (2000)10.1103/PhysRevLett.84.6054] that the effective temperature of a Lennard-Jones glass depends only on the final density in the volume and/or temperature jump that produces the glass. This is not only a property of the Lennard-Jones liquid, but a feature of all strongly correlating liquids. For such liquids data from a...

the virial coefficients can be obtained from statistical mechanics in connection with the intermolecular potentials. the intermolecular potential of polyatomic molecules is usually assumed to consist of a spherically symmetric component plus a contribution due to asphericaity of the molecular charge distribution. in this study, the second virial coefficients have been calculated for n2, co and ...

by considering the fact that the surface tension of a real fluid arises from a combination of both repulsive and attractive forces between molecules, a new expression for the interfacial tension has been derived from scaled particle theory (spt)  based on the work of cavity formation and the interaction energy between molecules. at the critical temperature, the interfacial tension between coexi...
