A fully solvable equilibrium self-assembly process: fine tuning the clusters size and the connectivity in patchy particle systems
Emanuela Bianchi, Emilia La Nave, Piero Tartaglia +1
Self-assembly is the mechanism that controls the formation of well defined structures from disordered pre-existing parts. Despite the importance of self-assembly as a manufacturing…
Metabasin dynamics and local structure in supercooled water
Jorge Ariel Rodriguez Fris, Gustavo A. Appignanesi, Emilia La Nave +1
We employ the Distance Matrix method to investigate metabasin dynamics in supercooled water. We find that the motion of the system consists in the exploration of a finite region of…
Maximum Valency Lattice Gas Models
Srikanth Sastry, Emilia La Nave, Francesco Sciortino
We study lattice gas models with the imposition of a constraint on the maximum number of bonds (nearest neighbor interactions) that particles can participate in. The critical param…
Liquid stability in a model for ortho-terphenyl
E. La Nave, S. Mossa, F. Sciortino +1
We report an extensive study of the phase diagram of a simple model for ortho-terphenyl, focusing on the limits of stability of the liquid state. Reported data extend previous stud…
A test of non-equilibrium thermodynamics in glassy systems: the soft-sphere case
E. La Nave, F. Sciortino, P. Tartaglia +2
The scaling properties of the soft-sphere potential allow the derivation of an exact expression for the pressure of a frozen liquid, i.e., the pressure corresponding to configurati…
Energy landscapes, ideal glasses, and their equation of state
M. S. Shell, P. G. Debenedetti, E. La Nave +1
Using the inherent structure formalism originally proposed by Stillinger and Weber [Phys. Rev. A 25, 978 (1982)], we generalize the thermodynamics of an energy landscape that has a…
