Free-energy density functional for the inhomogeneous hard-sphere fluid: Application to interfacial adsorption

Kierlik, E., Rosinberg, M. L.·1990·Physical Review A

Abstract

We propose a simplified version of the free-energy density functional for the inhomogeneous hard-sphere fluid mixture recently derived by Rosenfeld [Phys. Rev. Lett. 63, 980 (1989)]. This new functional, which requires four distinct weight functions, generates a triplet-direct-correlation function for the one-component fluid, which is in good agreement with Monte Carlo simulation results. It also performs well in describing the density profile of the hard-sphere fluid in contact with hard and soft walls. Yet, it is not suitable for studying the freezing transition.

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.
