Molecular Dynamics of Twohyphen;Dimensional Gases and the Formation of Bound States

摘要

Molecularhyphen;dynamics programs which can solve equations of motion for dilute and moderately dense gases have been developed. In the molecularhyphen;dynamics calculation for twohyphen;dimensional argon gas, the formation and dissociation of classical bound pairs (dimers) have been observed. The chemical reaction rate constant for this process has been determined and compared with existing classical theoretical models.
