Thermodynamics of Hard Sphere and Spherocylinder Mixtures -- Scaled Particle Theory and Monte Carlo Simulations
Volodymyr Shmotolokha, Jonas Maier-Borst, Mark Vis +2
We review the literature on scaled particle theory (SPT) and its extensions and discuss results applied to describe the thermodynamics of hard particle mixtures. After explaining t…

Equation of State of Charged Rod Dispersions
Remco Tuinier, Anja Kuhnhold
We study the accuracy of the theory of Stroobants, Lekkerkerker and Odijk, called SLO theory (Macromolecules 19 (1986) 2232-2238), to describe the thermodynamic properties of an is…

Reconsidering the structure of nucleation theories
Anja Kuhnhold, Hugues Meyer, Graziano Amati +2
We discuss the structure of the equation of motion that governs nucleation processes at first order phase transitions. From the underlying microscopic dynamics of a nucleating syst…
