Instabilities in complex mixtures with a large number of components
Richard P. Sear, Jose A. Cuesta
Inside living cells are complex mixtures of thousands of components. It is hopeless to try to characterise all the individual interactions in these mixtures. Thus, we develop a sta…
Phase equilibria in the polydisperse Zwanzig model of hard rods
Nigel Clarke, Jose A Cuesta, Richard Sear +2
We study the phase behaviour of the Zwanzig model of suspensions of hard rods, allowing for polydispersity in the lengths of the rods. In spite of the simplified nature of the mode…
Metastability and nucleation in the dilute fluid phase of a simple model of globular proteins
Richard P. Sear
The dilute fluid phase of model globular proteins is studied. The model possesses a fluid-fluid transition buried within the fluid-crystal coexistence region, as do some globular p…
The stability limit of polydisperse sticky hard spheres
Richard P. Sear
It has been shown by Stell [J. Stat. Phys. 63, 1203 (1991)] that at low temperature monodisperse sticky spheres collapse to form coexisting close-packed solid and infinitely dilute…
