Thermodynamic properties and correlation functions of Ar films on the surface of a bundle of nanotubes

Nathan M. Urban, Silvina M. Gatica, Milton W. Cole +1

We employ canonical Monte Carlo simulations to explore the properties of an Ar film adsorbed on the external surface of a bundle of carbon nanotubes. The study is concerned primari…

The existence and properties of gases adsorbed within interstitial channels of nanotube bundles

M. Mercedes Calbi, Flavio Toigo, Milton W. Cole

We analyze the relationship between our group's results and those of three recent papers about gases in interstitial channels within nanotube bundles. In particular, we explain the…

Wetting transition of water on graphite and other surfaces

S. M. Gatica, J. K. Johnson, X. C. Zhao +1

A wetting transition occurs when the contact angle of a liquid drop on a surface changes from a nonzero value to zero. Such a transition has never been observed for water on any so…

Intriguing examples of inhomogeneous broadening

Francesco Ancilotto, M. Mercedes Calbi, Milton W. Cole +2

Three problems are considered in which inhomogeneous broadening can yield unusual consequences. One problem involves the energy levels of atoms moving within nanopores of nearly cy…

Lattice dilation near a single hydrogen molecule in an interstitial channel within a nanotube bundle

M. Mercedes Calbi, Ari Mizel, Milton W. Cole

We explore the ground state of a single hydrogen molecule within an interstitial channel (IC) of a bundle of carbon nanotubes. A previous (variational) study found that when many m…

Universal anisotropic condensation transition of gases in nanotube bundles

Silvina M. Gatica, M. Mercedes Calbi, Milton W. Cole

Gases adsorbed within bundles of carbon nanotubes (inside of the nanotubes or in the interstitial channels between the tubes) exhibit a variety of phase transitions with the help o…
