Phase transitions in the Gaussian core system
Abstract
Some aspects of phase transition behavior have been studied for a classical system of particles which interact in pairs via repelling Gaussian potentials. In a specific low-temperature, low-density limit, this model acts as though it were composed of rigid spheres. Study of lattice sums suggests that at T=0, a fcc crystal stable at low density transforms under compression to a bcc crystal. It is shown that sufficient compression at any fixed T≳0 always produces a fluid phase. Under suitable temperature and density conditions, the model can exhibit positive, negative, or vanishing volumes of melting.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
