Abstract:
We have analyzed the currently available simulation results as well as performed some additional Monte Carlo simulation for the hard-core attractive Yukawa fluid in order to study its corresponding state behavior. We show that the values of reduced surface tension map onto the master curve and a universal equation of state can be obtained in the wide range of the attractive Yukawa tail length after a certain rescaling of the number density. Some comparisons with other nonconformal potentials are presented and discussed.
