Analyzing three approximate methods to locate liquid-solid coexistence in simple systems, an observation is made that all of them predict the same functional dependence of the temperature on density at freezing and melting of the…
We report a Phase Switch Monte Carlo (PSMC) method study of the freezing line of the Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluid. Our work generalizes to soft potentials the original application of the method to hard sphere freezing, and builds on a previous…
The invariance of several structural and dynamical properties of the Lennard-Jones (LJ) system along the freezing and melting lines is interpreted in terms of the isomorph theory. First the freezing/melting lines for LJ system are shown to…
Framing the glass formation within standard statistical mechanics is an outstanding problem of condensed matter theory. To provide new insight, we investigate the structural properties of the Lennard-Jones fluid in the very-low temperature…
We present a systematic study of the thermodynamics of two and three-dimensional generalized Lennard-Jones ($LJ$) systems focusing on the relationship between the range of the potential, the system density and its dimension. We found that…
We use polydispersity in size as a control parameter to explore certain aspects of melting and freezing transitions in a system of Lennard-Jones spheres. Both analytical theory and computer simulations are employed to establish a…
We report microcanonical Monte Carlo simulations of melting and superheating of a generic, Lennard-Jones system starting from the crystalline phase. The isochoric curve, the melting temperature $T_m$ and the critical superheating…
Extending to continuous potentials a cleaving wall molecular-dynamics simulation method recently developed for the hard-sphere system [Phys.Rev.Lett 85, 4751 (2000)], we calculate the crystal-melt interfacial free energies, $\gamma$, for a…
We present a computer simulation study of a (6,12)-Lennard-Jones fluid confined to a slit pore, formed by two uniform planes. These interact via (3,9)-Lennard-Jones potential with the fluid particles. When the fluid approaches the…
The phase diagram of the prototypical two-dimensional Lennard-Jones system, while extensively investigated, is still debated. In particular, there are controversial results in the literature as concern the existence of the hexatic phase and…
Results of a systematic investigation of the vapour-liquid equilibria of 38 individual two-centre Lennard-Jones plus axial pointdipole model fluids (2CLJD) are reported over a range of reduced dipolar momentum 0 $\le \mu^{*2} \le$ 20 and of…
We set up a harmonic lattice model for 2D defect melting which, in contrast to earlier simple-cubic models, lives on a triangular lattice. Integer-valued plastic defect gauge fields allow for the thermal generation of dislocations and…
We explain the findings by Di Leonardo et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 6054 (2000)] that the effective temperature of a Lennard-Jones glass depends only on the final value of the density in the volume and/or temperature jump that produces the…
In this paper we explore the validity of the Rosenfeld and the Dzugutov relation for the Lennard-Jones (LJ) system, its repulsive counterpart, the WCA system and a network forming liquid, the NTW model. We find that for all the systems both…
The Lennard-Jones (LJ) spline potential is a truncated LJ potential such that both the pair potential and the force continuously approach zero at $r_c \approx 1.74{\sigma}$. We present a systematic map of the thermodynamic properties of the…
We study the phenomenon of laser induced freezing, within a numerical renormalization scheme which allows explicit comparison with a recent defect mediated melting theory. Precise values for the `bare' dislocation fugacities and elastic…
A slab based long range correction approach for multi-site Lennard-Jones models is presented for systems with a planar film geometry that is based on the work by Janecek, J. Phys. Chem. B 110: 6264 (2006). It is efficient because it relies…
Using standard thermodynamics and previous results of the author, this paper aims to discuss the conditions for phase equilibrium in a Lennard-Jones fluid. Possibilities of astrophysical applications of the results obtained here are…
It is demonstrated that the crossover between gas- and liquid-like regions on the phase diagram of the Lennard-Jones system occurs at a fixed value of the density divided by its value at the freezing point, $\rho/\rho_{\rm fr}\simeq 0.35$.…
In principle, the answer to the posed titular question is undoubtedly 'yes.' But in practice, requisite reference data for homogeneous systems have been obtained with a treatment of intermolecular interactions that is different from that…
