Accurate “Effective” Intermolecular Pair Potentials in Gaseous Argon

Abstract: The “effective” intermolecular potential in gaseous argon has been determined, accurate through first order in density, for various assumed argon–argon potentials and the triple-dipole interaction. This potential should lead to the correct radial-distribution function. The calculations do not agree with the 1965 analysis of experimental data by Mikolaj and Pings [Phys. Rev. Letters 15, 849 (1965) ]. Our results suggest a density dependence of the minimum of the effective potential of only about 17 ρ̄ (in degre… Show more

“…However, the n 2 terms involving more than one f123 plate may also be important. Since the experimental curves should have the same zerodensity intercept as our results, this suggests that the results of Mikolaj and Pings are numerically too large, in accord with similar observations of Copeland and Kestner [13]. We also tentatively conclude from figure 5 that the experimental results show too large a rate of increase of Umin* with density.…”

“…Note that such terms are defined as an average over the radial distribution functions and are therefore state dependent. In the limit of r→ϱ, the AT form may be used to show that DDD (r; ,T) can be written as an explicit function of the distance and density: 2,4,30 lim r→ϱ DDD ͑ r; ,T ͒ϭ f ͑ r; ͒ϭ 8 9 C 9 r Ϫ6 . ͑14͒…”

“…The other three-body contributions mentioned above, which can be modelled by the expressions of Bell 15 , are known to have a small influence although it is not clear whether the agreement with the experiment could be improved when these are taken into account. At high densities, beside dispersion terms, three-body overlap contributions such as exchange effects may come into play [16][17][18][19] .…”
