Title: Hard-core lattice model of multiphase systems
Abstract: The cooperative-problem lattice model for gases, liquids, and solids on a face-centered-cubic lattice is approximately solved. A hard-core interaction is assumed between particles on nearest-, next-nearest-, and on next-but-one nearest-neighbor lattice sites. Particles on lattice sites which are at a greater distance from one another are connected by an arbitrary soft pair interaction whose zero Fourier component may be positive or negative. By considering not only homogeneous particle distributions but also some simple periodical particle distributions on the lattice we can, in the case of a mean attractive soft particle interaction, prove the possibility of the existence of four thermodynamical stable phases: a gas phase, a liquid phase, a solid modification with a face-centered-cubic periodical structure, and a solid modification with a simple cubic periodical structure. Transitions between these phases can take place.
