Gas-solid coexistence of adhesive spheres
Abstract
In this note, the authors investigate whether the gas-liquid critical point can remain
stable with respect to solidification for narrow attractive interactions down to the
Baxter limit. Using a crude cell theory, the authors estimate the necessary conditions
for this to be true. Possible realizations are briefly discussed. © 2007 American
