A model for the radial distribution function $g(r)$ of a square-well fluid of variable width previously proposed [S. B. Yuste and A. Santos, J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 101}, 2355 (1994)] is revisited and simplified. The model provides an explicit…
In this work, we have calculated self-diffusion and shear viscosity, two of the most important transport properties, of the spherical square-well (SW) fluid interacting with potential range $\lambda = 1.5 \, \sigma$. To this end, we have…
The main goal of this work is to accurately reproduce the structural properties of attractive systems modelled by hard-sphere plus square-well (HS+SW) interaction potential. Based on the optimized random phase approximation (ORPA), the…
The square-well fluid with hard-sphere diameters is studied within the framework of Thermodynamic Geometry (TG). Coexistence and spinodal curves, as well as the Widom line for ranges $\lambda^{*} = 1.25, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0$ for this fluid are…
A known `sticky-hard-sphere' model, defined starting from a hard-sphere-Yukawa potential and taking the limit of infinite amplitude and vanishing range with their product remaining constant, is shown to be ill-defined. This is because its…
The structural properties of square-shoulder fluids are derived from the use of the rational function approximation method. The computation of both the radial distribution function and the static structure factor involves mostly analytical…
We study the equilibrium of a liquid film on an attractive spherical substrate for an intermolecular interaction model exhibiting both fluid-fluid and fluid-wall long-range forces. We first reexamine the wetting properties of the model in…
We present a study of the self consistent Ornstein-Zernike approximation (SCOZA) for square-well (SW) potentials of narrow width delta. The main purpose of this investigation is to elucidate whether in the limit delta --> 0, the SCOZA…
Although density functional theory provides reliable predictions for the static properties of simple fluids under confinement, a theory of comparative accuracy for the transport coefficients has yet to emerge. Nonetheless, there is evidence…
We report a simulation study of the gas-liquid critical point for the square-well potential, for values of well width delta as small as 0.005 times the particle diameter sigma. For small delta, the reduced second virial coefficient at the…
The properties of one-dimensional liquids are studied for several interaction potentials for which, under certain assumptions, the properties of the system admit an analytical solution. The studied potentials are the triangle-well and the…
We present molecular simulation data for viscosity, self-diffusivity, and the local structural ordering of (i) a hard-sphere fluid and (ii) a square-well fluid with short-range attractions. The latter fluid exhibits a region of dynamic…
We introduce a model of attractive penetrable spheres by adding a short range attractive square well outside a penetrable core, and we provide a detailed analysis of structural and thermodynamical properties in one dimension using the exact…
We combine experiments and simulations to study the link between criticality and gelation in sticky spheres. We employ confocal microscopy to image colloid-polymer mixtures, and Monte Carlo simulations of the square-well (SW) potential as a…
The thermodynamic instabilities of a binary mixture of sticky hard spheres (SHS) in the modified Mean Spherical Approximation (mMSA) and the Percus-Yevick (PY) approximation are investigated using an approach devised by X. S. Chen and F.…
The continuity conditions of the radial distribution function g(r) and its close relative the cavity function y(r) are studied in the context of the Percus-Yevick (PY) integral equation for 3D square-well fluids. The cases corresponding to…
We construct a density functional theory (DFT) for the sticky hard sphere (SHS) fluid which, like Rosenfeld's fundamental measure theory (FMT) for the hard sphere fluid [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 63}, 980 (1989)], is based on a set of weighted…
In this short communication we present a possible scheme to study the radial distribution function of the quantum slightly polydisperse Baxter sticky hard sphere liquid at finite temperature thorugh a semi-analytical method devised by…
An overview of some analytical approaches to the computation of the structural and thermodynamic properties of single component and multicomponent hard-sphere fluids is provided. For the structural properties, they yield a thermodynamically…
We investigate the dependence of the stickiness parameters $t_{ij}=1/(12\tau _{ij})$ -- where the $\tau_{ij}$ are the conventional Baxter parameters -- on the solute diameters $\sigma_{i}$ and $\sigma_{j}$ in multicomponent sticky hard…
