Early stages of aggregation in fluid mixtures of dimers and spheres: a theoretical and simulation study

Gianmarco Munaò, Santi Prestipino, Dino Costa

We use Monte Carlo simulation and the Reference Interaction Site Model (RISM) theory of molecular fluids to investigate a simple model of colloidal mixture consisting of dimers, ma…

Complex Self-Assembly from Simple Interaction Rules in Model Colloidal Mixtures

Santi Prestipino, Domenico Gazzillo, Gianmarco Munaò +1

Building structures with hierarchical order through the self-assembly of smaller blocks is not only a prerogative of nature, but also a strategy to design artificial materials with…

Self-assembly in a model colloidal mixture of dimers and spherical particles

Santi Prestipino, Gianmarco Munaò, Dino Costa +1

We investigate the structure of a dilute mixture of amphiphilic dimers and spherical particles, a model relevant to the problem of encapsulating globular "guest" molecules in a dis…

Shapes of a liquid droplet in a periodic box

S. Prestipino, C. Caccamo, D. Costa +2

Within the coexistence region between liquid and vapor the equilibrium pressure of a simulated fluid exhibits characteristic jumps and plateaus when plotted as a function of densit…

On the determination of phase boundaries via thermodynamic integration across coexistence regions

M. C. Abramo, C. Caccamo, D. Costa +4

Specialized Monte Carlo methods are nowadays routinely employed, in combination with thermodynamic integration (TI), to locate phase boundaries of classical many-particle systems.…

Reference Interaction Site Model and Optimized Perturbation theories of colloidal dumbbells with increasing anisotropy

Gianmarco Munaò, Francisco Gàmez, Dino Costa +3

We investigate thermodynamic properties of anisotropic colloidal dumbbells in the frameworks provided by the Reference Interaction Site Model (RISM) theory and an Optimized Perturb…
