  • Title: Importance of the tail corrections on surface tension of curved liquid-vapor interfaces.
    Author: Ghoufi A, Malfreyt P.
    Journal: J Chem Phys; 2017 Feb 28; 146(8):084703. PubMed ID: 28249460.
    Abstract:
    We report molecular simulations of the liquid-vapor cylindrical interface of methane. We apply the truncated Lennard-Jones potential and specific long-range corrections for the surface tension developed especially for cylindrical interfaces. We investigate the impact of the cutoff on the radial density profile, the intrinsic and long-range correction parts to the surface tension, and Tolman length. We also study the curvature dependence of the surface tension as a function of the cutoff used. In this work we shed light that both density and Tolman length are cutoff-dependent whereas the total surface tension is slightly curvature and cutoff dependent.
