Journal ArticleDOI
Cavitation of a Lennard‐Jones fluid between hard walls, and the possible relevance to the attraction measured between hydrophobic surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, a Lennard-Jones fluid confined between two planar hard walls is simulated using grand canonical Monte Carlo, and capillary evaporation is found for liquid subcritical bulk states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and scattering in colloidal ferrofluids
Philip J. Camp,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: The progression of fluid structures from the low-density associated phase, to the high-density liquid phase is described, and the structure factors have been calculated, and are analyzed with the aid of simple scaling arguments.
Journal ArticleDOI
The solution of the reference hypernetted-chain approximation for water-like models
Peter G. Kusalik,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the dielectric and structural properties of hard polarizable multipolar models for liquid water and obtained the theoretical results by solving the self-consistent mean field approximation together with the reference hypernetted-chain (RHNC) theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ferroelectric liquid-crystal and solid phases formed by strongly interacting dipolar soft spheres
Dong-Qing Wei,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: Molecular-dynamics simulation results are reported for systems of strongly interacting dipolar soft spheres and it is found that in addition to the ferroelectric nematic phase, liquid crystals with columnar order can also be obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypernetted‐chain closure with bridge diagrams. Asymmetric hard sphere mixtures
Phil Attard,G. N. Patey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first two terms in the density expansion of the bridge function are calculated and the Derjaguin approximation for rescaling the force between spheres to the interaction free energy between planes is examined and found to give the dominant curvature correction.
