The Lennard-Jones (LJ) Potential Energy Problem is to construct the most stable form of N atoms of a molecule with the minimal LJ potential energy. This problem has a simple mathematical form

We propose and test a pair potential that is accurate at all relevant distances and simple enough for use in large-scale computer simulations. A combination of the Rydberg potential from spectroscopy and the London inverse-sixth-power energy, the proposed form fits spectroscopically determined potentials better than the Morse, Varnshi, and Hulburt-Hirschfelder potentials and much better than th...

This paper argues that significant research and teaching in experimental phonetics at UCL preceded the establishment of the laboratory in 1912 by almost a decade. The forgotten work of E. R. Edwards [1] combined descriptive and experimental approaches in a pioneering study of Japanese. Recently recovered artefacts, and a close reading of the early publications of Daniel Jones (DJ), reveal a sur...

MOTIVATION Computational studies of the energetics of protein association are important for revealing the underlying fundamental principles and for designing better tools to model protein complexes. The interaction cutoff contribution to the ruggedness of protein-protein energy landscape is studied in terms of relative energy fluctuations for 1/r(n) potentials based on a simplistic model of a p...

The nature of Bence Jones proteins is developed by a review of the pertinent literature. This is followed by a discussion of their metabolism and catabolism under normal and abnormal clinical conditions. Various methods for the detection of Bence Jones proteins are critically reviewed and the significance of these pro­ teins in various disorders is assessed.

The microscopic effective pairing interaction in the S0-channel is investigated for two different values of the chemical potential μ starting from the separable form of the Paris NN-potential. It is shown that, within a high accuracy, this effective interaction can be approximated by the off-shell free T -matrix taken at the negative energy E = 2μ.

We prove that the scattering matrix at a fixed quasi–energy determines uniquely a time–periodic potential that belongs to L and that decays exponentially at infinity. Our result is new even in the time–independent case, where it was only proven for bounded exponentially decreasing potentials.

We improve the best known lower bounds on the distance between two points of a Morse cluster in R, with ρ ∈ [4.967, 15]. Our method is a generalization of the one applied to the Lennard-Jones potential in [2], and it also leads to improvements of lower bounds for the energy of a Morse cluster. Some of the numerical results have been announced in [1].

using the lennard-jones (12-6) potential, a new equation of state is obtained that can predict properties of both gases and liquids relatively well. this equation of state is given as (z-a)v2=(a/v2)-b, where z is the compressibility factor, a and b are constants, and a is an adjustable parameter that depends on the temperature, volume and the nature of the fluid, and its expressions depends upo...
