AbstractIn molecular dynamics simulations of molten LiCl and LiBr at about 1000 K and various pressures the self-exchange velocity of unlike ion pairs divided by the molar volume increases with increasing pressure up to ca. 1000 MPa, reflecting the trend experimentally found for the electric conductivity up to 100 MPa. While the coordination of unlike ions is tetrahedral at low pressures, it is nearly octahedral at 2000 MPa.

Molecular dynamics simulations of molten TlCl are performed at 7 temperatures between 800 and 2600 K. The self-exchange velocity of neighbouring unlike ions divided by the molar volume, a quantity corresponding to the specific conductivity, is found to have a maximum as a function of temperature. The reason for the existence of the maximum is discussed

Iron-phosphate glasses, due to their properties, have many potential applications. One of the most promising seems to be nuclear waste immobilization. Radioactive 90Sr isotope is the main short-lived product of fission and, due to its high solubility, it can enter groundwater and pose a threat to the environment. On the other hand, Sr is an important element in hard tissue metabolic processes, and phosphate glasses containing Sr are considered bioactive. This study investigated the effect of SrO addition on a glass structure of nominal 30Fe2O3-70P2O5 chemical composition using classical molecular dynamics simulations. To describe the interaction between Sr-O ion pairs, new interatomic potential parameters of the Buckingham-type were developed and tested for crystalline compounds. The short-range structure of the simulated glasses is presented and is in agreement with previous experimental and theoretical studies. The simulations showed that an increase in SrO content in the glass led to phosphate network depolymerization. Analysis demonstrated that the non-network oxygen did not take part in the phosphate network depolymerization. Furthermore, strontium aggregation in the glass structure was observed to lead to the non-homogeneity of the glass network. It was demonstrated that Sr ions prefer to locate near to Fe(II), which may induce crystallization of strontium phosphates with divalent iron.

The minimum energy structures of CmTin microclusters and nanoparticles have been investigated theoretically by performing molecular–dynamics (MD) simulations. Selected crystalline and completely random initial geometries are considered. The potential energy function (PEF) used in the calculations includes two– and three–body atomic interactions for C-Ti binary systems. Molecular–dynamics simulations have been performed at 1 K and 300 K. It has been found that initial geometry has a very strong influence on relaxed geometry
