Phase Transitions at the Fluid-Solid Interface in a Model for the Adsorption of Hard Spheres

Abstract

Phase transitions at the fluid-solid interface are studied using an adsorption model consisting of a fluid of hard spheres in contact with a planar wall which contains a lattice of sticky adsorption sites. The model is equivalent to a lattice gas with n-body interactions that are related to the n-body correlation functions of the fluid.
