A gaseous proportional counter built from a conventional aluminium beverage can
Alexander Winkler, Aneliya Karadzhinova, Timo Hildén +4
The gaseous proportional counter is a device that can be used to detect ionizing radiation. These devices can be as simple as a cylindrical cathode and a very thin anode wire cente…
Simulation of fluid-solid coexistence in finite volumes: A method to study the properties of wall-attached crystalline nuclei
Debabrata Deb, Alexander Winkler, Peter Virnau +1
The Asakura-Oosawa model for colloid-polymer mixtures is studied by Monte Carlo simulations at densities inside the two-phase coexistence region of fluid and solid. Choosing a geom…
Methods to Compute Pressure and Wall Tension in Fluids containing Hard Particles
Debabrata Deb, Dorothea Wilms, Alexander Winkler +2
Colloidal systems are often modelled as fluids of hard particles (possibly with an additional soft attraction, e.g. caused by polymers also contained in the suspension). in simulat…
Hard sphere fluids confined between soft repulsive walls: A comparative study using Monte Carlo and density functional methods
Debabrata Deb, Alexander Winkler, Mohammad Hossein Yamani +3
Hard-sphere fluids confined between parallel plates a distance apart are studied for a wide range of packing fractions, including also the onset of crystallization, applying Mo…
Rounding of Phase Transitions in Cylindrical Pores
Dorothea Wilms, Alexander Winkler, Peter Virnau +1
Phase transitions of systems confined in long cylindrical pores (capillary condensation, wetting, crystallization, etc.) are intrinsically not sharply defined but rounded. The fini…
Capillary Condensation in Cylindrical Pores: Monte Carlo Study of the Interplay of Surface and Finite Size Effects
Alexander Winkler, Dorothea Wilms, Peter Virnau +1
When a fluid that undergoes a vapor to liquid transition in the bulk is confined to a long cylindrical pore, the phase transition is shifted (mostly due to surface effects at the w…
Molecular mode-coupling theory applied to a liquid of diatomic molecules
A. Winkler, A. Latz, R. Schilling +1
We study the molecular mode coupling theory for a liquid of diatomic molecules. The equations for the critical tensorial nonergodicity parameters and the criti…
