Integral equation theory for uncharged liquids: The Lennard-Jones fluid and the bridge function

Abstract: For the Lennard-Jones fluid, a new approximation for the bridge function is introduced and tested. The approximation is semi-phenomenological in nature. The structure predicted by the new approximation, in the form of the pair correlation function g(r), agrees extremely well with recent computer simulations for large systems, over the full range of density and temperature. The thermodynamic properties of the Lennard-Jones fluid are predicted and are in better agreement with computer simulations than earlier th… Show more

For homonuclear diatomic fluids, the screened density and the renormalized intramolecular matrices ρ ̅ and Ŝ (k) are given by the following expressions: (21) η being the screened density whose approximation to first order 45 can be numerically approximated by the following expression: . In the latter formula, ρ represents the site density, L the bond length, and f is the Mayer function.…”

“…This has encouraged refined approximations to overcome those difficulties. [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] Such is the case of hybrid theories which mix two of the approximations via a switching function. Further direct calculation of a series of bridge diagrams leads to considerable improvement in the results but dramatically increases the computational complexity.…”

“…We begin by evaluating the HNC solution ͓b͑r͒ =0͔ for h͑r͒ using the Picard iteration algorithm presented by Duh and Haymet. 33 The result is used to estimate b͑r͒ from its h-bond series expansion including only the b 2 term, which is evaluated by the Mayer-sampling technique using the HNC h͑r͒ interpolated from a table. This estimate of b͑r͒ is then used in another Duh-Haymet calculation of h͑r͒ via Eqs.…”
