Comment on "Nonlocal statistical field theory of dipolar particles in electrolyte solutions" by Y.A. Budkov

Soft Condensed Matter 2019-01-15 v1

Abstract

The article by Budkov introduces a nonlocal field-theoretic model of solvent-explicit electrostatics. Despite giving a detailed introduction to the early literature on the topic, the article misses out on a series of articles that we published several years ago. Consequently, the manuscript essentially rederives without mention several results that were derived by us for the first time.
