Thermodynamics of freezing and melting

Thermodynamics of freezing and melting

Melting is a classic first-order phase transition, but an accurate thermodynamic description is still lacking. Here, Pedersen et al. develop a theory, validated by simulations of the Lennard-Jones system, for the melting thermodynamics applicable to all systems characterized by hidden scale invarian...
