Question

Specific term required. Fundamental measure theory is a form of DFT applied to mixtures of these objects. A system of these objects simulated by the Lubachevsky-Stillinger algorithm undergoes jamming as these objects are compacted. In the first usage of molecular dynamics, Alder and Wainwright simulated these objects in a box. The excluded volume of these objects is eight times their volume and their second virial coefficient is equal to four. Formally, these objects are defined as having a pairwise interaction potential of (*) infinity (10[1])when distance is less than some sigma, and zero potential when distance is at least sigma. In kinetic molecular theory, particles have no volume and are assumed to be these objects (10[1])with a two-word name. A common approximation in statistical mechanics is to model particles as, for 10 points, what idealized particles that cannot overlap in space? ■END■

ANSWER: hard spheres [or hard disks; accept hard core model; accept rigid spheres; prompt on particles; prompt on spheres or balls; prompt on disks]
