The low-density/high-density liquid phase transition for model globular proteins

Patrick Grosfils, James F. Lutsko

The effect of molecule size (excluded volume) and the range of interaction on the surface tension, phase diagram and nucleation properties of a model globular protein is investigat…

Phase behavior of a confined nano-droplet in the grand-canonical ensemble: the reverse liquid-vapor transition

James F. Lutsko, Julien Laidet, Patrick Grosfils

The equilibrium density distribution and thermodynamic properties of a Lennard-Jones fluid confined to nano-sized spherical cavities at constant chemical potential was determined u…

Is the Tsallis entropy stable?

James F. Lutsko, Jean Pierre Boon, Patrick Grosfils

The question of whether the Tsallis entropy is Lesche-stable is revisited. It is argued that when physical averages are computed with the escort probabilities, the correct applicat…

Dependence of the liquid-vapor surface tension on the range of interaction: a test of the law of corresponding states

Patrick Grosfils, James F. Lutsko

The planar surface tension of coexisting liquid and vapor phases of a fluid of Lennard-Jones atoms is studied as a function of the range of the potential using both Monte Carlo sim…

Statistics of precursors to fingering processes

Patrick Grosfils, Jean Pierre Boon

We present an analysis of the statistical properties of hydrodynamic field fluctuations which reveal the existence of precursors to fingering processes. These precursors are found…

Nonextensive statistics in viscous fingering

Patrick Grosfils, Jean Pierre Boon

Measurements in turbulent flows have revealed that the velocity field in nonequilibrium systems exhibits -exponential or power law distributions in agreement with theoretical ar…
