A thermodynamically self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike approximation (SCOZA) is applied to a fluid of spherical particles with a pair potential given by a hard-core repulsion and a Yukawa attractive tail $w(r)=-\exp [-z(r-1)]/r$. This…
In an effort to generalize the self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike approximation (SCOZA) -- an accurate liquid-state theory that has been restricted so far to hard-core systems -- to arbitrary soft-core systems we study a combination of SCOZA…
Thermodynamic consistency of the Mean Spherical Approximation as well as the Self-Consistent Ornstein-Zernike Approximation (SCOZA) with the virial route to thermodynamics is analyzed in terms of renormalized gamma-ordering. For continuum…
The mean spherical approximation (MSA) can be solved semi-analytically for the Gaussian core model (GCM) and yields - rather surprisingly - exactly the same expressions for the energy and the virial equations. Taking advantage of this…
The Hierarchical Reference Theory (HRT) and the Self-Consistent Ornstein-Zernike Approximation (SCOZA) are two liquid state theories that both furnish a largely satisfactory description of the critical region as well as phase separation and…
An Ornstein-Zernike approximation for the two-body correlation function embodying thermodynamic consistency is applied to a system of classical Heisenberg spins on a three-dimensional lattice. The consistency condition determined in a…
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…
We extend the self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike approximation (SCOZA), first formulated in the context of liquid-state theory, to the study of the random field Ising model. Within the replica formalism, we treat the quenched random field as…
We show the way in which the self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike approach (SCOZA) to obtaining structure factors and thermodynamics for Hamiltonian models can best be applied to two-dimensional systems such as thin films. We use the…

We study a model for an argon-like fluid parameterised in terms of a hard-core repulsion and a two-Yukawa potential. The liquid-gas phase behaviour of the model is obtained from the thermodynamically self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike…
This thesis explores the evolution of liquid-state theories based on the Ornstein-Zernike (OZ) equation, summarizing the foundational methods developed by Baxter, Lebowitz, Wertheim, and others. A unifying feature of these approaches is…
It is necessary for the statistical description of collective effects in liquids to set that or other approximation between direct and pair correlation functions which describe a neighboring order. The analytical solution of the generalized…
The Ornstein-Zernike equation is a powerful tool in liquid state theory for predicting structural and thermodynamic properties of fluids. Combined with a suitable closure, it has been shown to reproduce e.g. the static structure factor,…
A key challenge for soft materials design and coarse-graining simulations is determining interaction potentials between components that give rise to desired condensed-phase structures. In theory, the Ornstein-Zernike equation provides an…
The self-diffusion process of a hard sphere fluid confined by two parallel plates separated by a distance on the order of the particle diameter is studied. The starting point is a closed kinetic equation for the distribution function that…
The molecular density functional theory of fluids provides an exact theory for computing solvation free energies in implicit solvents. One of the reasons it has not received nearly as much attention as quantum density functional theory for…
We derive the Ornstein-Zernike equation for molecular crystals of axially symmetric particles and apply the Percus-Yevick approximation to this system. The one-particle orientational distribution function has a nontrivial dependence on the…
In this Research Note the Zwanzig's formulation of the Stokes-Einstein (SE) relation for simple atomistic fluids is re-examined. It is shown that the value of the coefficient in SE relation depends on the ratio of the transverse and…
We report an ab initio study of structural and dynamic properties of liquid copper as a function of temperature. In particular, we have evaluated the temperature dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient from the velocity autocorrelation…
