The Evolution of Multicomponent Systems at High Pressures: II. The Alder-Wainwright, High-Density, Gas-Solid Phase Transition of the Hard-Sphere Fluid
J. F. Kenney
The thermodynamic stability of the hard-sphere gas has been examined, using the formalism of scaled particle theory [SPT], and by applying explicitly the conditions of stability re…

The Evolution of Multicomponent Systems at High Pressures: IV. The Genesis of Optical Activity in High-density, Abiotic Fluids
J. F. Kenney, Ulrich K. Deiters
A thermodynamic argument has been developed which relates the chirality of the constituents of a mixture of enantiomers to the system excess volume, and thereby to its Gibbs free e…

Development of a general equation of state for real molecules in arbitrary regimes of temperature and pressure: I. The hard-core reference system
J. F. Kenney, Richard J. Petti
A general equation of state for the hard-body reference system of real fluid has been developed from first principles, statistical mechanical arguments using metric differential ge…
