Models
Girifalco potential
The Girifalco intermolecular pair potential is given by [1] (Eq. 4):
![{\displaystyle \Phi (r)=-\alpha \left[{\frac {1}{s(s-1)^{3}}}+{\frac {1}{s(s+1)^{3}}}-{\frac {2}{s^{4}}}\right]+\beta \left[{\frac {1}{s(s-1)^{9}}}+{\frac {1}{s(s+1)^{9}}}-{\frac {2}{s^{10}}}\right]}](https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/283401221466ce68eda644a68cb8248aa26fbe70)
where
where is the number of atoms on each sphere, i.e. N=60.
Phase diagram
Liquid phase
Gel phase
Simulations of the Girifalco potential indicate a possible gel composed solely of C60 molecules [7]
