Abstract
A Monte Carlo simulation of the liquid-vapour interface near the triple point is reported. A monotonic density profile is obtained. In the entire interface the pair correlation function g(r) was found to be very close to the liquid bulk g(r), except for the low density region (ϱ(z)/(ϱliq ≦ 0.25 ) where information was inaccessible. The behaviour of the solution of the BGYB equation for the density profile is explored in the context of the new information concerning the pair correlation function in the interface.Keywords
