متن کاملStacking Entropy of Hard Sphere Crystals
Classical hard spheres crystallize at equilibrium at high enough density. Crystals made up of stackings of 2-dimensional hexagonal close-packed layers (e.g. fcc , hcp , etc.) differ in entropy by only about 10−3kB per sphere (all configurations are degenerate in energy). To readily resolve and study these small entropy differences, we have implemented two different multicanonical Monte Carlo al...
متن کاملDensity-functional theory of hard-sphere condensation under gravity.
The onset of condensation of hard spheres in a gravitational field is studied using density-functional theory (DFT). We find that the local density approximation yields results identical to those obtained previously using the kinetic theory [Physica A 271, 192, (1999)], and a weighted density-functional theory gives qualitatively similar results, namely, that the temperature at which condensati...
متن کاملVariational approach to hard sphere segregation under gravity.
It is demonstrated that the minimization of the free energy functional for hard spheres and hard disks yields the result that excited granular materials under gravity segregate not only in the widely known "Brazil nut" fashion, i.e., with the larger particles rising to the top, but also in reverse "Brazil nut" fashion. Specifically, the local density approximation is used to investigate the cro...
متن کاملSlanted stacking faults and persistent face centered cubic crystal growth in sedimentary colloidal hard sphere crystals†
Hard sphere crystal growth is a delicate interplay between kinetics and thermodynamics, where the former is commonly thought to favour a random hexagonal close packed structure and the latter leads to a face centered cubic crystal. In this article, we discuss the influence of slanted stacking faults on the growth of sedimentary colloidal crystals from dispersions with high initial volume fracti...
