Results of a systematic investigation of the vapour-liquid equilibria (VLE) of 30 individual two-centre Lennard-Jones plus pointquadrupole model fluids (2CLJQ) are reported over a range of reduced quadrupolar momentum $0 \le Q^{*2} \le 4$…
An ion and a polar molecule interact by an anisotropic ion-dipole potential scaling as $- \alpha \cos (\theta)/r^2$ at large distances. Due to its long-range character, it modifies the properties of angular wave functions, which are no…
