Inherent Structures for Soft Long-Range Interactions in Two-Dimensional Many-Particle Systems
Robert D. Batten, Frank H. Stillinger, Salvatore Torquato
We generate inherent structures, local potential-energy minima, of the "-space overlap potential" in two-dimensional many-particle systems using a cooling and quenching simulati…
Phase Behavior of Colloidal Superballs: Shape Interpolation from Spheres to Cubes
Robert D. Batten, Frank H. Stillinger, Salvatore Torquato
The phase behavior of hard superballs is examined using molecular dynamics within a deformable periodic simulation box. A superball's interior is defined by the inequality $|x|^{2q…
Novel Low-Temperature Behavior in Classical Many-Particle Systems
Robert D. Batten, Frank H. Stillinger, Salvatore Torquato
We show that classical many-particle systems interacting with certain soft pair interactions in two dimensions exhibit novel low-temperature behaviors. Ground states span from diso…
Classical Disordered Ground States: Super-Ideal Gases, and Stealth and Equi-Luminous Materials
Robert D. Batten, Frank H. Stillinger, Salvatore Torquato
Using a collective coordinate numerical optimization procedure, we construct ground-state configurations of interacting particle systems in various space dimensions so that the sca…
