✦ Synopsis


An example of a task very sensitive to the quality of input data obtained by molecular simulations is inverting the Ornstein-Zemike (OZ) relation in order to obtain the bridge function . This function appears in the successful perturbation theory for the structure of simple liquids, the reference HNC theory [2].

We show that for the usual fluid simulations in the canonical (NVT) ensemble and the cubic periodic boundary conditions the following two kinds of finite-size corrections are important to estimate the infinite-system radial distribution function g(r): -The difference between the grandcanonical (/~VT) and NVT ensembles which is approximately

We present simulation results for single o-thermal chain polymers in finite volumes. For this we use a recently proposed recursive implementation of the enrichment method. In 3 dimensions it allows the simulation of extremely long chains (up to N = 300000). It is much less efficient for d = 2, but w

## Ionization "stairs" in thermal and caloric EOS Limiting structure of thermodynamic functions of gaseous plasmas is under consideration in the limit of extremely low temperature and density. Remarkable tendency, which was claimed previously [1-3], is carried to extreme. The point is that the dis
