A new method is developed for correlating the static dielectric constant of polar fluids over wide ranges of conditions where few experimental data exist. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to establish the temperature and density dependence of the

We derive a method for extrapolating the grand canonical free energy landscape of a multicomponent fluid system from one temperature to another. Previously, we introduced this statistical mechanical framework for the case where kinetic energy contributions

Using molecular simulations, we investigate how the range of fluid-fluid (adsorbate-adsorbate) interactions and the strength of fluid-solid (adsorbate-adsorbent) interactions impact the strong connection between distinct adsorptive regimes and distinct

Quantum chemistry packages can be used to predict with reasonable accuracy spin-rotation hyperfine interaction constants for methanol, which contains one methyl-top internal rotor. In this work we used these same packages to calculate components of the

Thermodynamic properties of the twelve monohalobenzoic acids are critically evaluated through application of computational chemistry methods for the ideal-gas phase and thermodynamic consistency assessment of properties determined experimentally and
An accurate and cost-efficient methodology for the estimation of the enthalpies of formation for closed-shell compounds composed of C, H, O, and N atoms is presented and validated against critically evaluated experimental data. The computational efficiency

Heat capacities of antiviral and antiparkinsonian drug amantadine hydrochloride in the crystalline state were measured by adiabatic and differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range from (5 to 470) K. Two unresolved low-enthalpy solid-to-solid

The decoherence of trapped-ion quantum bits due to heating of their motional modes is a fundamental science and engineering problem. This heating is attributed to electric- field noise arising from processes on the trap-electrode surfaces. In this work, we

The self-assembly of patchy trimer particles with one attractive bead and two repulsive beads is investigated with nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in the presence of a velocity gradient, as would be produced by the application of a shear
We review values of the temperature jump coefficient zeta_T determined from measurements of the acoustic resonance frequencies f_acoust of helium-filled and argon-filled, metal-walled, quasi- spherical cavities near ambient temperature. We combine these
We investigate the role of the intrinsic backbone chain stiffness on the morphology behavior of bottle-brush diblock copolymers by using molecular dynamics simulations of a bead-spring coarse- grained model. We focus on bottle-brush having blocks of the
