Phase diagram of argon, excluding crystalline phases, reduced to Lennard-Jones units; the red dots show the coexisting densities from the experimental measurements of Gilgen et al. [5,6]; the densities of the soft-sphere percolation transitions PE and PA in the high-temperature limit (b=0), and the soft-sphere freezing density (black dot) are obtained from references [7], [8] and [9] respectively.

A phase diagram of argon based upon percolation transition loci determined from literature experimental density-pressure isotherms, and simulation values using a Lennard-Jones model shows three fluid phases. The liquid phase spans all temperatures, from a metastable amorphous ground state at 0K, to ultra-high T. There is a supercritical mesophase b...

The dynamical percolation transition of the two-dimensional axial next nearest-neighbor Ising model due to a pulsed magnetic field has been studied by finite size scaling analysis (by Monte Carlo simulation) for various values of frustration parameters, pulse width and temperature (below the corresponding static transition temperature). It has been...

It has been recently established that heterogeneous bootstrap percolation and related dynamic facilitation models exhibit a complex hierarchy of continuous and discontinuous transitions depending on lattice connectivity and kinetic constraints. Here the range of the previously observed phase diagram topologies and higher-order singularities is exte...

We present a generalization of the granocentric model proposed in [Clusel et al., Nature, 2009, 460, 611–615] that is capable of describing the local fluctuations inside not only polydisperse but also monodisperse packings of spheres. This minimal model does not take into account the relative particle positions, yet it captures positional disorder...

We analyze nonequilibrium lattice models with up-down symmetry and two absorbing states by mean-field approximations and numerical simulations in two and three dimensions. The phase diagram displays three phases: paramagnetic, ferromagnetic and absorbing. The transition line between the first two phases belongs to the Ising universality class and b...

Using exact enumeration methods and Monte Carlo simulations, we study the phase diagram relative to the conformational transitions of a diblock copolymer in two dimensions. The polymer is made of two homogeneous strands of monomers of different species which are joined to each other at one end. We find that, depending on the values of the energy pa...

A phase diagram of argon based upon percola-tion transition loci determined from literature experimental p-V isotherms, and simulation val-ues using a Lennard-Jones model shows three fluid phases. The liquid phase spans all temper-atures, from a metastable amorphous ground state at 0K, to ultra-high T. There is a supercriti-cal mesophase bounded by percolation tran-sition loci, and a gas phase. Intersection of two percolation loci in the p-T plane thermodyna-mically defines a critical line between two coex-isting gas and liquid critical states at T = T c , and the single mesophase for T > T c . A debate on the absence of a van der Waals critical point in the Gibbs p-T density surface is appended.
