Abstract:
The excess free energy f of the Yukawa one-component plasma is investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations. These simulations are performed in the canonical ensemble within hyperspherical boundary conditions and f is computed for various values of the coupling parameter in the range 0.1100 and of the screening parameter * in the range 0.1*6.
