Effect of surface morphology on kinetic compensation effect
Nayeli Zuniga-Hansen, Leonardo E. Silbert, M. Mercedes Calbi
As part of a systematic study on the kinetic compensation effect, we use kinetic Monte Carlo simulations to observe the effects of substrate topology on the transient variations in…
Breakdown of Kinetic Compensation Effect in Physical Desorption
Nayeli Zuniga-Hansen, Leonardo E. Silbert, M. Mercedes Calbi
The kinetic compensation effect (KCE), observed in many fields of science, is the systematic variation in the apparent magnitudes of the Arrhenius parameters , the energy of a…
Quasi-one dimensional fluids that exhibit higher dimensional behavior
Silvina M. Gatica, M. Mercedes Calbi, George Stan +2
Fluids confined within narrow channels exhibit a variety of phases and phase transitions associated with their reduced dimensionality. In this review paper, we illustrate the cross…
Lattice-gas Monte Carlo study of adsorption in pores
Raluca A. Trasca, M. Mercedes Calbi, Milton W. Cole +1
A lattice gas model of adsorption inside cylindrical pores is evaluated with Monte Carlo simulations. The model incorporates two kinds of site: (a line of) ``axial'' sites and surr…
Lattice model of gas condensation within nanopores
Raluca A. Trasca, M. Mercedes Calbi, Milton W. Cole
We explore the thermodynamic behavior of gases adsorbed within a nanopore. The theoretical description employs a simple lattice gas model, with two species of site, expected to des…
Axial phase of quantum fluids in nanotubes
S. M. Gatica, G. Stan, M. M. Calbi +2
We explore the equations of state and other properties of various quantum fluids (3He, 4He, their mixtures, and H_2) confined within individual carbon nanotubes. Above a threshold…
