The analogue of the hydrophobic hydration is explored for Lennard-Jones solutions. The free energy of solvation and its temperature derivatives, both in the constant-pressure process and in the constant-volume process, are obtained numerically for a variety of the size and energy parameters for the solute-solvent Lennard-Jones potential. We identify in the parameter space a region in which the ...

We have designed several schemes to reduce the number of parameters in the problem of minimizing the total energy of Lennard Jones clusters We will discuss our schemes development in three dimensions The value of our work lies in the simplicity with which it provides a new approach to problems involving huge Lennard Jones clusters

Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics calculations of the shear viscosity of supercritical carbon dioxide along the 313 K isotherm are reported. Three different intermolecular potential models of increasing complexity are considered: a spherically symmetric Lennard-Jones potential, a two-site Lennard-Jones potential, and a three-site potential which includes a quadrupole-quadrupole moment. Results ...

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.
