The Role of Solvent Fluctuations in Hydrophobic Assembly
A. P. Willard, D. Chandler
We use a coarse grained solvent model to study the self assembly of two nano-scale hydrophobic particles in water. We show how solvent degrees of freedom are involved in the proces…
De-coupling of Exchange and Persistence Times in Atomistic Models of Glass Formers
Lester O. Hedges, Lutz Maibaum, David Chandler +1
With molecular dynamics simulations of a fluid mixture of classical particles interacting with pair-wise additive Weeks-Chandler-Andersen potentials, we consider the time series of…
Solvent coarse-graining and the string method applied to the hydrophobic collapse of a hydrated chain
Thomas F. Miller, Eric Vanden-Eijnden, David Chandler
Using computer simulations of over 100,000 atoms, the mechanism for the hydrophobic collapse of an idealized hydrated chain is obtained. This is done by coarse-graining the atomist…
