We present a systematic study of the effect of the ion pairing on the gas-liquid phase transition of hard-core 1:1 electrolyte models. We study a class of dipolar dimer models that depend on a parameter R_c, the maximum separation between…
Precise calculations of the coexistence-curve diameters of a hard-core square-we ll (HCSW) fluid and the restricted primitive model (RPM) electrolyte exhibit mar ked deviations from rectilinear behavior. The HCSW diameter displays a…
Phase separation and criticality are analyzed in $z$:1 charge-asymmetric ionic fluids of equisized hard spheres by generalizing the Debye-H\"{u}ckel approach combined with ionic association, cluster solvation by charged ions, and hard-core…
Discotic colloids give rise to a paradigmatic family of liquid crystals with sound applications in Materials Science. In this paper, Monte Carlo simulations are employed to characterize the low-temperature liquid crystal phase diagram and…
We present a novel method to derive liquid-gas coexisting densities, $\rho^{\pm}(T)$, from grand canonical simulations (without knowledge of $\Tc$ or criticality class). The minima of $ Q_{L}\equiv< m^{2} >_{L}^{2}/< m^{4}>_{L}$ in an…
A new theoretical approach to 1:1 electrolytes at low temperature is developed, RPM and SAPM are studied with this approach, and their critical points of first order phase transition are calculated. The result is in very good agreement with…
We report the phase coexistence properties of polarizable Stockmayer fluids of reduced permanent dipoles equal to 1.0 and 2.0 and reduced polarizabilities equal to 0.00, 0.03, and 0.06, calculated by a series of grand canonical Monte Carlo…
A Lennard--Jones model of a binary dense liquid (A,B) with a symmetrical miscibility gap is investigated by means of computer simulation methods. Semigrand--canonical Monte Carlo simulations yield the phase diagram in the $T$--$x$ plane…
We present a Monte-Carlo study of the liquid-vapor transition and the critical behavior of a model of polyelectrolytes with soft gaussian charge distributions introduced recently by Coslovich, Hansen, and Kahl [J. Chem. Phys. \textbf{134},…
Linearly-sloped or `ramp' potentials belong to a class of core-softened models which possess a liquid-liquid critical point (LLCP) in addition to the usual liquid-gas critical point. Furthermore they exhibit thermodynamic anomalies in the…
A novel algorithm is presented that yields precise estimates of coexisting liquid and gas densities, $\rho^{\pm}(T)$, from grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of model fluids near criticality. The algorithm utilizes data for the…
A theoretical model of vapor-liquid phase transition in a system of charged hard cores of different diameters is suggested (with the parameters of the transition obtained in a number of studies using the Monte Carlo method). The model is…
The master asymptotic behavior of the usual parachor correlations, expressing surface tension $\sigma$ as a power law of the density difference $\rho_{L}-\rho_{V}$ between coexisting liquid and vapor, is analyzed for a series of pure…
Monte Carlo simulations within the grand canonical ensemble are used to explore the liquid-vapour coexistence curve and critical point properties of the Lennard-Jones fluid. Attention is focused on the joint distribution of density and…
The equilibrium phase diagram of a 1:1 symmetrical mixture composed of oppositely charged colloids is calculated using Monte Carlo simulations. We model the system by the DLVO effective interaction potential. The phase diagram is similar to…
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to examine the relationship between water-like anomalies and the liquid-liquid critical point in a family of model fluids with multi-Gaussian, core-softened pair interactions. The core-softened pair…
We report a Monte Carlo finite-size scaling study of the demixing transition of a symmetrical Lennard-Jones binary fluid mixture. For equal concentration of species, and for a choice of the unlike-to-like interaction ratio delta=0.7, this…
We report an extensive Monte Carlo study of critical end point behaviour in a symmetrical binary fluid mixture. On the basis of general scaling arguments, singular behaviour is predicted in the diameter of the liquid-gas coexistence curve…
A self-consistent theory of bulk electrolytes incorporating electrostatic and hard-core interactions on an equal level is applied to the two-dimensional Coulomb liquid with finite ion size. The ionic pair distributions, the structure…
The recent experimental study by means of time-resolved luminescence measurements of an electron-hole liquid (EHL) in diamond by Shimano et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 (2002) 057404] prompts us to compare and contrast critical temperature T_c…
