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 approximation (SCOZA) of Hoye and Stell, the solution of which lends itself particularly well to a pair potential of this form. The predictions for the critical point and the coexistence curve are compared to new high resolution simulation data and to other liquid-state theories, including the hierarchical reference theory (HRT) of Parola and Reatto. Both SCOZA and HRT deliver results that are considerably more accurate than standard integral-equation approaches. Among t

We consider a longitudinal expansion of a one-dimensional gas of hard-core bosons suddenly released from a trap. We show that the broken translational invariance in the initial state of the system is encoded in correlations between the bosonic occupation numbers in the momentum space. The correlations are protected by the integrability and exhibit no relaxation during the expansion.
We determine the phase diagram for a generalisation of two-and three-dimensional hard spheres: a classical system with three-body interactions realised as a hard cut-off on the mean-square distance for each triplet of particles. Quant
We investigate the low temperature behaviour of the integrable 1D two-component spinor Bose gas using the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz. We find that for strong coupling the characteristics of the thermodynamics at low temperatures are quantitatively affected by the spin ferromagnetic states, which are described by an effective ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain. The free energy, specific heat, susceptibility and local pair correlation function are calculated for various physical regimes in terms of temperature and interaction strength. These thermodynamic properties reveal spin effects which are significantly different than those of the spinless Bose gas. The zero-field susceptibility for finite strong repulsion exceeds that of a free spin paramagnet. The critical exponents of the specific heat $c_v sim T^{1/2}$ and the susceptibility $chi sim T^{-2}$ are indicative of the ferromagnetic signature of the two-component spinor Bose gas. Our analytic results are consistent with general arguments by Eisenberg and Lieb for polarized spinor bosons.
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 the melting scenario. Here, we study the phase behaviour of 2D LJ particles via large-scale numerical simulations. We demonstrate that at high temperature, when the attraction in the potential plays a minor role, melting occurs via a continuous solid-hexatic transition followed by a first-order hexatic-fluid transition. As the temperature decreases, the density range where the hexatic phase occurs shrinks so that at low-temperature melting occurs via a first-order liquid-solid transition. The temperature where the hexatic phase disappears is well above the liquid-gas critical temperature. The evolution of the density of topological defects confirms this scenario.
We have studied in detail the transition from gas-like to rigid liquid-like behaviour in supercritical $N_2$ at 300 K (2.4 $T_C$). Our study combines neutron diffraction and Raman spectroscopy with empirical potential structure refinement and ab-initio molecular dynamics simulations. We observe a narrow transition from gas-like to rigid liquid-like behaviour at ca. 150 MPa, which we associate with the Frenkel line. Our findings allow us to reliably characterize the Frenkel line using both diffraction and spectroscopy methods, backed up by simulation, for the same substance. We clearly lay out what parameters change, and what parameters do not change, when the Frenkel line is crossed.
