Complex Phase Behavior of The System of Particles with Smooth Potential with Repulsive Shoulder and Attractive Well

Abstract

We report a detailed simulation study of the phase behavior of core softened system with attractive well. Different repulsive shoulder widthes and attractive well depthes are considered which allows to monitor the influence of repulsive and attractive forces on the phase diagram of the system. Thermodynamic anomalies in the systems are also studied. It is shown that the diffusion anomaly is stabilized by small attraction.
