Statistical Mechanics of Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Phase Transitions: The Yang-Lee Formalism
Ioana Bena, Michel Droz, Adam Lipowski
Showing that the location of the zeros of the partition function can be used to study phase transitions, Yang and Lee initiated an ambitious and very fruitful approach. We give an…
Phase Transitions and Oscillations in a Lattice Prey-Predator Model
Tibor Antal, Michel Droz
A coarse grained description of a two-dimensional prey-predator system is given in terms of a 3-state lattice model containing two control parameters: the spreading rates of preys…
Formation of Liesegang patterns: A spinodal decomposition scenario
T. Antal, M. Droz, J. Magnin +1
Spinodal decomposition in the presence of a moving particle source is proposed as a mechanism for the formation of Liesegang bands. This mechanism yields a sequence of band positio…
Liesegang patterns: Effect of dissociation of the invading electrolyte
B. Chopard, M. Droz, J. Magnin +2
The effect of dissociation of the invading electrolyte on the formation of Liesegang bands is investigated. We find, using organic compounds with known dissociation constants, that…
