Crystallization of hard-sphere glasses
E. Zaccarelli, C. Valeriani, E. Sanz +3
We study by molecular dynamics the interplay between arrest and crystallization in hard spheres. For state points in the plane of volume fraction () and po…
Homogeneous Bubble Nucleation driven by local hot spots: a Molecular Dynamics Study
Zun-Jing Wang, Chantal Valeriani, Daan Frenkel
We report a Molecular Dynamics study of homogenous bubble nucleation in a Lennard-Jones fluid. The rate of bubble nucleation is estimated using forward-flux sampling (FFS). We find…
Out-of-equilibrium processes in suspensions of oppositely charged colloids: liquid-to-crystal nucleation and gel formation
Eduardo Sanz, Chantal Valeriani, Teun Vissers +5
We study the kinetics of the liquid-to-crystal transformation and of gel formation in colloidal suspensions of oppositely charged particles. We analyse, by means of both computer s…
Computing stationary distributions in equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems with Forward Flux Sampling
Chantal Valeriani, Rosalind J. Allen, Marco J. Morelli +2
We present a method for computing stationary distributions for activated processes in equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems using Forward Flux Sampling (FFS). In this method, the…
