The Debye-Hückel theory describes rigorously the thermal equilibrium of classical Coulomb fluids in the high-temperature β → 0 regime (β denotes the inverse temperature). It is generally believed that the Debye-Hückel theory and the systematic high-temperature expansion provide an adequate description also in the region of small strictly positive values of β > 0. This hypothesis is tested in th...

We study the statistical mechanics of a multicomponent two-dimensional Coulomb gas which lives on a finite surface without boundaries. We formulate the Debye– Hückel theory for such systems, which describes the low-coupling regime. There are several problems, which we address, to properly formulate the Debye–Hückel theory. These problems are related to the fact that the electric potential of a ...

The effects of non-equilibrium charge screening in mixtures of oppositely charged interacting molecules on surfaces are analyzed in a closed system. The dynamics of charge screening and the strong deviation from the standard Debye-Hückel theory are demonstrated via a new formalism based on computing radial distribution functions suited for analyzing both short-range and long-range spacial order...

Near-critical thermodynamics in the hard-sphere (1, 1) electrolyte is well described, at a classical level, by Debye-Hückel (DH) theory with s1, 2d ion pairing and dipolar-pair-ionic-fluid coupling. But DH-based theories do not address density fluctuations. Here density correlations are obtained by functional differentiation of DH theory generalized to nonuniform densities of various species. T...
