Abstract: | LetZ
p
be the partition function over internal configurational degrees of freedom of ap-particle cluster. The existence of the limit, asp, of (p)–1 logZ
p
is demonstrated for the square, triangle, hexagon, simple cubic, face-centered cubic, and body-centered cubic lattice gas models, and for continuous space models with potentials satisfying stability and tempering conditions. Pairwise, finite-range bonding is assumed throughout.Supported in part by the Robert A. Welch Foundation. |
