A modified version of the Gibbs-ensemble Monte-Carlo method reveals how polydisperse charged colloidal particles can build complex colloidal crystals. It provides general rules that are applicable to this fractionated crystallization that stems from size segregation. It explains the spontaneous formation of complex crystals with very large unit-cells in suspensions of nanoparticles with a broad size distribution.

The miscibility gap in H2–H2O mixtures is investigated by conducting Gibbs-ensemble Monte Carlo simulations. Our results indicate that H2–H2O immiscibility regions may have a significant impact on the structure and evolution of ice giant planets.

We extend the application of the ab initio Gibbs ensemble method to the metallic system by including the contribution of excited electronic states.
