Abstract:
Solid-liquid phase transitions in three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) Yukawa systems were studied numerically and analytically, including the melting of the fcc and bcc 3D lattices, and of a hexagonal primitive (hp) 2D lattice. An approach is proposed for the determination of the melting lines in these systems. The suggested approach takes into account the nonlinearity (anharmonicity) of pair interaction forces and allows one to correctly predict the conditions of melting for 3D and 2D crystal systems. The obtained results are compared with the existing theoretical and numerical data.
