Soft-particle lattice-gas in 1d: one- and two-component cases
Derek Frydel, Yan Levin
The object of the present article is a 1d lattice-gas system comprised of soft-particles, wherein particles interact only if they occupy the same or a neighboring site, as a simple…
Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics of Two-dimensional Vortices
Renato Pakter, Yan Levin
It has been observed empirically that two dimensional vortices tend to cluster forming a giant vortex. To account for this observation Onsager introduced a concept of negative abso…
Surface and interfacial tensions of Hofmeister electrolytes
Alexandre P. dos Santos, Yan Levin
We present a theory that is able to account quantitatively for the surface and interfacial tensions of different electrolyte solutions. It is found that near the interface, ions ca…
Ions at hydrophobic interfaces
Alexandre P. dos Santos, Yan Levin
We argue that the kosmotropes remain strongly hydrated in the vicinity of a hydrophobic surface, while the chaotropes lose their hydration shell and can become adsorbed to the inte…
Interaction of Charged Colloidal Particles at the Air-Water Interface
Matheus Girotto, Alexandre P. dos Santos, Yan Levin
We study, using Monte Carlo simulations, the interaction between charged colloidal particles confined to the air-water interface. The dependence of force on ionic strength and coun…
Adsorption isotherms of charged nanoparticles
Alexandre P. dos Santos, Amin Bakhshandeh, Alexandre Diehl +1
We present theory and simulations which allow us to quantitatively calculate the amount of surface adsorption excess of charged nanoparticles onto a charged surface. The theory is…
