CHEMICAL POTENTIALS OF HARD-CORE MOLECULES BY A STEPWISE INSERTION METHOD

ABSTRACT A molecular simulation algorithm was implemented to calculate chemical potentials of hard-core molecular systems at high densities. The method is based on the Widom particle insertion method and the step-function character of free energy variations. The algorithm was evaluated for hard-sphe...
