A spherical model with directional interactions. I. Static properties.
We introduce a simple spherical model whose structural properties are similar to the ones generated by models with directional interactions, by employing a binary mixture of large and small hard spheres, with a square-well attraction acting only between particles of different sizes. The small particles provide the bonds between the large ones. With a proper choice of the interaction parameters,...
متن کاملA spherical model with directional interactions: II. Dynamics and landscape properties.
We study a binary non-additive hard-sphere mixture with square well interactions only between dissimilar particles. An appropriate choice of the inter-particle potential parameters favors the formation of equilibrium structures with tetrahedral ordering (Zaccarelli et al 2007 J. Chem. Phys. 127 174501). By performing extensive event-driven molecular dynamics simulations, we monitor the dynamics...
متن کاملMicrocanonical entropy of the spherical model with nearest-neighbour interactions
For the spherical model with nearest-neighbour interactions, the microcanonical entropy s(ε,m) is computed analytically in the thermodynamic limit for all accessible values of the energy ε and the magnetization m per spin. The entropy is found to be a concave function, implying that the microcanonical and the canonical ensemble are equivalent, despite the long-range nature of the spherical cons...
متن کاملA new spherical harmonics scheme for multi-dimensional radiation transport I. Static matter configurations
Recent work by McClarren & Hauck [31] suggests that the filtered spherical harmonics method represents an efficient, robust, and accurate method for radiation transport, at least in the two-dimensional (2D) case. We extend their work to the three-dimensional (3D) case and find that all of the advantages of the filtering approach identified in 2D are present also in the 3D case. We reformulate t...
متن کاملEffects of bead-bead interactions on the static and dynamical properties of model polymer solutions.
The effects of segment-segment interactions on the static and dynamical properties of model polymer solutions are examined by Brownian dynamics simulations in the free-draining limit over a wide concentration range. A bead-and-spring model is used to describe the polymer chains at a coarse-grained level, in which segment-segment interactions are represented by a bead-bead pair potential with a ...
