Analytic Solution of the Molecular Ornstein-Zernike Equation for Non-Spherical Molecules Spheres with Anisotropic Surface Adhesion.

Abstract

The molecular Ornstein-Zernike equation is solved for a fluid of hard spheres with anisotropic surface adhesion yielding a small set of non-linear algebraic equations which must be solved numerically in order to obtain structural and thermodynamic properties. It is argued that such a model mimics the short-ranged, anisotropic interactions encountered in hydrogen-bondee fluids such as water. Keywords: Water statistical mechanics, Sticky adhesion model.
