Strong correlations between equilibrium fluctuations of the configurational parts of pressure and energy are found in the Lennard-Jones liquid and other simple liquids, but not in hydrogen-bonding liquids like methanol and water. The…
In this paper, I consider a thin suspended liquid film, surrounded by a different fluid. Examples of such a system are soap films and liquid crystal films, surrounded by air. They are considered good models for two dimensional fluid…
The viscosity of glass-forming liquids increases by many orders of magnitude if their temperature is lowered by a mere factor of 2-3 [1,2]. Recent studies suggest that this widespread phenomenon is accompanied by spatially heterogeneous…
Simple liquids are traditionally defined as many-body systems of classical particles interacting via radially symmetric pair potentials. We suggest that a simple liquid should be defined instead by the property of having strong correlation…
