Preferential Adsorption

It has been shown that in light scattering experiments with polymers replacement of a solvent by a solvent mixture causes problems due to preferential adsorption of one of the solvents. The present paper extends this theory to be applicable to any angle of observation and any concentration by using the random phase approximation theory proposed by de Gennes. The corresponding formulas provide expressions for molecular weight, gyration radius, and the second virial coefficient, which enables measurements of these quantities provided enough information on molecular and thermodynamic quantities is available.

The Waves

A simple derivation is given of the quantum mechanical expression for the second virial coefficient in terms of the scattering phase shifts. The derivation does not require the introduction of a quantization volume and is based on the identity R(z)−R0(z) = R0(z)H1R(z), where R0(z) and R(z) are the resolvent operators corresponding to the unperturbed and total Hamiltonians H0 and H0 + H1 respectively. The derivation is valid in particular for a gas of excitons in a crystal for which the shape of the waves describing the relative motion of two excitons is not spherical, and, in general, varies with varying energy. The validity of the phase shift formula is demonstrated explicitly for this case by considering a quantization volume with a boundary the shape of which varies with the energy in such a way that for each energy the boundary is a surface of constant phase. The density of states prescribed by the phase shift formula is shown to result if the enclosed volume is required to be the same for all energies.

AbstractWe present a new analytical approximation for determining the compressibility factor of real gases at various temperature values. This algorithm is suitable for the accurate evaluation of the compressibility factor using the second virial coefficient with a Lennard–Jones (12-6) potential. Numerical examples are presented for the gases H2, N2, He, CO2, CH4 and air, and the results are compared with other studies in the literature. Our results showed good agreement with the data in the literature. The consistency of the results demonstrates the effectiveness of our analytical approximation for real gases.
