Collisional dissipation rate for binary mixtures of aspherical particles

Crystallization of hard aspherical particles.

We use numerical simulations to study the crystallization of monodisperse systems of hard aspherical particles. We find that particle shape and crystallizability can be easily related to each other when particles are characterized in terms of two simple and experimentally accessible order parameters: one based on the particle surface-to-volume ratio and the other on the angular distribution of ...

Off-equilibrium fluctuation dissipation relation in binary mixtures

In this note we present numerical simulations of binary mixtures. We study the diffusion of particles and the response to an external driving force. We find evidence for the validity of the Cugliandolo Kurchan off-equilibrium fluctuation dissipation relation. The results are in agreement with the predictions of one step replica symmetry breaking and the dependance of the breakpoint parameter on...

Binary Mixtures of Particles with Different Diffusivities Demix.

The influence of size differences, shape, mass, and persistent motion on phase separation in binary mixtures has been intensively studied. Here we focus on the exclusive role of diffusivity differences in binary mixtures of equal-sized particles. We find an effective attraction between the less diffusive particles, which are essentially caged in the surrounding species with the higher diffusion...

A SIMPLE MODEL FOR THE ESTIMATION OF DIELECTRIC CONSTANTS OF BINARY SOLVENT MIXTURES

A simple and reliable method for quick estimation of the dielectric constant of a binary solvent mixture is proposed. The validity of the proposed method has been tested for a broad range of binary solvent mixtures
