Multi-species dynamical density functional theory.

چکیده
We study the dynamics of a multi-species colloidal fluid in the full position-momentum phase space. We include both inertia and hydrodynamic interactions, which strongly influence the non-equilibrium properties of the system. Under minimal assumptions, we derive a dynamical density functional theory (DDFT), and, using an efficient numerical scheme based on spectral methods for integro-differential equations, demonstrate its excellent agreement with the full underlying Langevin equations. We utilise the DDFT formalism to elucidate the crucial effects of hydrodynamic interactions in multi-species systems.

Dynamical density functional theory: phase separation in a cavity and the influence of symmetry
Abstract. Consider a fluid composed of two species of particles, where the interparticle pair potentials u11 = u22 6= u12. On confining an equal number of particles from each species in a cavity, one finds that the average one body density profiles of each species are constrained to be exactly the same due to the symmetry, when both external cavity potentials are the same. For a binary fluid of...

In this work, we report results of calculations based on the density functional theory of different species metal-ozone, containing mercury, silver and gold. The chosen species range from small molecules and large transition-metal containing ozone with mercury, silver and gold complexes. A comparative analysis of the description of the metal-oxygen bond obtained by different methodologies is pr...

متن کاملDynamical density functional theory: binary phase-separating colloidal fluid in a cavity
Abstract. The dynamical density functional theory of Marconi and Tarazona [J. Chem. Phys., 110, 8032 (1999)], a theory for the non-equilibrium dynamics of the onebody density profile of a colloidal fluid, is applied to a binary fluid mixture of repulsive Gaussian particles confined in a spherical cavity of variable size. For this model fluid there exists an extremely simple Helmholtz free energ...
