  • Title: Perturbed-chain equation of state for the solid phase.
    Author: Cochran TW, Chiew YC.
    Journal: J Chem Phys; 2006 Jun 14; 124(22):224901. PubMed ID: 16784308.
    Abstract:
    A perturbed chain equation of state for the solid phase has been derived. Although the equation is general with respect to intermolecular potential, we incorporate the Lennard-Jones potential in this work in order to compare results from the model with available Monte Carlo simulation data. Two forms of the radial distribution function for the hard-sphere solid chain reference state are used in the model. First, a theoretically rigorous approach is taken by using a correlation of actual solid-phase Monte Carlo hard-sphere chain data for the radial distribution function. This results in good agreement with the Monte Carlo data only at high density. Second, a simple extended-density approximation was used for the radial distribution function. This second approach was found to work well across the entire density range including the vicinity of the solid-fluid equilibrium.
