Thermodynamic perturbation theory and glass transition in simple fluids

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2006, vol. 372, issue 2, 307-315

Abstract: Using the liquid state thermodynamic perturbation theory and the hard-sphere fluid as the reference system, the liquid–glass transition line of Lennard–Jones and hard-core Yukawa fluids is computed. The results are presented both in the reduced density vs. reduced temperature and in the reduced pressure vs. reduced temperature planes. A comparison with available simulation data and a discussion of the merits and limitations of this approach are also provided.
