Temperature Dependence of Thermodynamic, Dynamical and Dielectric Properties of Water Models

Tatiana I. Morozova, Nicolas A. Garcia, Jean-Louis Barrat

We investigate the temperature dependence of thermodynamic (density, isobaric heat capacity), dynamical (self-diffusion coefficient, shear viscosity), and dielectric properties of…

Thermal Properties of Vortices on Curved Surfaces

Leopoldo R. Gómez, Nicolás A. García, Daniel A. Vega +1

We use Monte Carlo simulations to study the finite temperature behavior of vortices in the XY- model for tangent vector order on curved backgrounds. Contrary to naive expectations,…

Effective potentials induced by self-assembly of patchy particles

Nicolás Ariel García, Nicoletta Gnan, Emanuela Zaccarelli

Effective colloid-colloid interactions can be tailored through the addition of a complex cosolute. Here we investigate the case of a cosolute made by self-assembling patchy particl…

Phase nucleation in curved space

Leopoldo R. Gomez, Nicolas A. Garcia, Vincenzo Vitelli +2

Nucleation and growth is the dominant relaxation mechanism driving first order phase transitions. In two-dimensional at systems nucleation has been applied to a wide range of probl…

Crystallization Dynamics on Curved Surfaces

Nicolas A. Garcia, Richard A. Register, Daniel A. Vega +1

We study the evolution from a liquid to a crystal phase in two-dimensional curved space. At early times, while crystal seeds grow preferentially in regions of low curvature, the la…
