Journal ArticleDOI
The solution of the hypernetted‐chain approximation for fluids of nonspherical particles. A general method with application to dipolar hard spheres
P. H. Fries,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a general method for the numerical solution of the full hypernetted-chain (HNC) theory for fluids characterized by angle-dependent pair potentials is described, and detailed comparisons are made with previous theories and computer simulation results.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Monte Carlo method for obtaining the interionic potential of mean force in ionic solution
G. N. Patey,John P. Valleau +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a Monte Carlo method for obtaining the solvent-averaged interionic potential of mean force is described, where two charged hard spheres immersed in a dipolar hard sphere solvent are characterized by a reduced dipole moment μ*=1.0 which corresponds to a dielectric constant e?7.8.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the molecular theory of aqueous electrolyte solutions. I. The solution of the RHNC approximation for models at finite concentration
Peter G. Kusalik,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical study of the thermodynamic, dielectric, and structural properties of model aqueous electrolyte solutions is presented, where hard sphere ions are immersed in a hard polarizable dipole tetrahedral-quadrupole solvent with water-like parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orientational order in simple dipolar liquids: Computer simulation of a ferroelectric nematic phase.
Dong-Qing Wei,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: Molecular-dynamics simulations are used to show that strongly interacting dipolar spheres can form a ferroelectric nematic phase, the first demonstration that dipolar forces alone can create an orientationally ordered liquid state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluids of polarizable hard spheres with dipoles and tetrahedral quadrupoles Integral equation results with application to liquid water
Steven L. Carnie,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mean spherical, linearized hypernetted chain and quadratic hyper netted chain approximations are solved for a fluid of hard spheres with embedded point dipoles and tetrahedral quadrupoles and this system is shown to be quite similar to the dipole-linear quadrupole case previously studied.
