Abstract
A thermodynamically consistent density functional-perturbation theory is used to study the isostructural solid-to-solid transition which takes place in the hard sphere/attractive Yukawa system when the Yukawa tail is sufficiently short-ranged. A comparison with results for the square well potential allows us to study the effect of the attractive potential form on the solid-solid transition. Reasonable agreement with simulations is found for the main transition properties as well as for the phase diagram evolution with the the range of the attractive potential.
