Abstract: | The molecular dynamics method is used to examine the ordering of interacting subsystems in a two-component, two-dimensional
Coulomb gas, consisting of equal amounts of positively and negatively charged particles, which simulates the behavior of a
system of interacting vortices. In particular, it is found that when the system temperature is lowered from the Kosterlitz-Thouless
transition point, additional ordering of the vortex chains may take place. It is noted that this process may stimulate the
development of vortex chains observed in real superfluid, magnetic, and superconducting systems. Possible applications of
the molecular dynamics method to phase separation and the ordering of adiabatically slowly moving subsystems in the collective
field of a fast subsystem are considered.
