Hard disk model: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 12:08, 19 February 2008

Hard disks are hard spheres in two dimensions. The hard disk intermolecular pair potential is given by

\Phi \left(r\right)=\left\{{\begin{array}{lll}\infty &;&r<\sigma \\0&;&r\geq \sigma \end{array}}\right.

where $\Phi \left(r\right)$ is the intermolecular pair potential between two disks at a distance $r$ , and $\sigma$ is the diameter of the disk.
