Explicit Solvents Reverse Temperature Dependence of Phase Behavior in Charged Fluids
Pierre J. Walker, Zhen-Gang Wang
In most theories of electrolyte and polyelectrolyte solutions, the solvent is treated implicitly as a dielectric continuum. While this approximation has enabled major advances, it…
How Topology Shapes the Phase Behavior of Polyelectrolytes
David Beyer, Pierre J. Walker, Lena Tarrach +2
We develop a topology-specific theory of polyelectrolyte coacervation using the random phase approximation and apply it to both simple and complex coacervation. Our results for sta…
Stockmayer Fluid with a Shifted Dipole: Bulk Behavior
Pierre J. Walker, Ananya Venkatachalam, Samuel Varner +2
Shifting the point dipole from the center of a Stockmayer particle is a simple geometric modification that has been explored previously, yet its implications for liquid structure,…
Stockmayer Fluid with a Shifted Dipole: Interfacial Behavior
Samuel Varner, Pierre J. Walker, Ananya Venkatachalam +2
We investigate the properties of the liquid-vapor interface in the shifted Stockmayer fluid using molecular dynamics simulations in the canonical ensemble. We study the role of the…
