Vegard's law.
Alan R. Denton,N. W. Ashcroft +1 more
TL;DR: Applications of a density-functional theory of nonuniform fluid mixtures to the fluid-solid transition of simple binary mixtures of hard spheres demonstrates the importance of relative atomic sizes in determining lattice constants and suggests that for sufficiently small disparities in atomic size Vegard's law may also hold along the fluid -solid coexistence curve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modified weighted-density-functional theory of nonuniform classical liquids
Alan R. Denton,N. W. Ashcroft +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that in its new formulation the WDA is now just as simple to implement as the widely used Ramakrishnan-Yussouff' theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite-size effects in molecular dynamics simulations: Static structure factor and compressibility. I. Theoretical method
TL;DR: A method is presented for determining the static structure factor S(Q) of a uniform bulk fluid, for all wave-vector magnitudes Q, from computer simulation data for a finite (N-particle) system using a Taylor-series expansion in powers of 1/N.
Journal ArticleDOI
Counterion penetration and effective electrostatic interactions in solutions of polyelectrolyte stars and microgels.
TL;DR: The counterions are found to penetrate stars more easily than microgels, with important implications for screening of bare macroion interactions and the effective pair interactions are Yukawa in form for separated macroions, but are softly repulsive and bounded for overlapping macroions.
