A new similarity found from the correspondence of the critical and Zeno-line parameters

Abstract:
We find a new similarity based on the relation between the critical and unit compressibility line (Zeno-line) parameters. Our study relies on the fact that the Zeno-line must be tangential to the extension of the binodal liquid branch at the zero temperature domain. We show that this similarity faithfully describes both the numerical simulation data and experimental data for a wide class of real materials (17 gases, water, and 5 metals). Finally we make some predictions for metals which have critical parameters in the phase diagram domain still inaccessible for experiment.

Equivalent Couples
Two couples are considered to be equivalent if they produce the same rotational effect on a rigid body. In other words, the two couples have the same magnitude and act in the same direction, causing the same angular displacement or acceleration in the body.
For instance, consider two couples lying in the plane of the page, with one having a pair of equal...

Perpendicular-Axis Theorem
Consider a circular disc of mass M and radius R lying along an x-y plane. The origin lies at the center of the disc, and the z-axis is perpendicular to the disc's plane. All three axes coincide at the disc's center. The moment of inertia of this...
