Functional form

The 9-3 Lennard-Jones potential is related to the standard Lennard-Jones potential.

It takes the form:

Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle V(r)={\frac {3{\sqrt {3}}}{2}}\epsilon \left[\left({\frac {\sigma }{r}}\right)^{9}-\left({\frac {\sigma }{r}}\right)^{3}\right].}

The minimum value of is obtained at , with

  • Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle {\frac {r_{min}}{\sigma }}=3^{1/6}}

Applications

It is commonly used to model the interaction between the particles of a fluid with a flat structureless solid wall.

Interaction between a solid and a fluid molecule

Let us consider the space divided in two regions:

  • Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle x<0} : this region is occupied by a diffuse solid with density composed of 12-6 Lennard-Jones atoms
