Classical density functional theory to tackle solvation in molecular liquids
arXiv:1504.00796
Abstract
We present a brief review of the classical density functional theory of atomic and molecular fluids. We focus on the application of the theory to the determination of the solvation properties of arbitrary molecular solutes in arbitrary molecular solvent. This includes the prediction of the solvation free energies, as well as the characterization of the microscopic, three-dimensional solvent structure.
