This transition is believed to occur across a locus of thermodynamic states called the Frenkel line. The Frenkel line has been extensively investigated from the viewpoint of the dynam- ics, but its structural meaning is still not well understood. This letter interprets the mesoscopic picture of the Frenkel line entirely based on a topological and geomet- rical framework. This discovery makes it possible to understand the mechanism of rigid/non-rigid transition based not on the dynamics of individual atoms, but on their instantaneous configurations. The topological classification method reveals that the percolation of solid-like structures occurs above the rigid-nonrigid crossover densities. Graphical TOC Entry 2 Despite its abundance in nature1–3 and utilization in industry,4–6 supercritical fluid has been regarded as a terra incognita 7,8 of the fluid physics over a century. Its anomalous behaviors in the vicinity of the critical point9 and in the high-pressure region are not entirely understood. In the high-pressure region, the dynamics of a particle change from diffusive (gas-like) to oscillatory (solid-like) motions as the system pressure increases.

  • Liquid State Isomorphism, Rosenfeld-Tarazona Temperature Scaling and Riemannian Thermodynamic Geometry
    Liquid state isomorphism, Rosenfeld-Tarazona temperature scaling and Riemannian thermodynamic geometry Peter Mausbach Technical University of Cologne, 50678 K¨oln/Germany Andreas K¨osterand Jadran Vrabec∗ Thermodynamics and Energy Technology, University of Paderborn, 33098 Paderborn/Germany (Dated: May 28, 2018) Aspects of isomorph theory, Rosenfeld-Tarazona temperature scaling and thermodynamic geom- etry are comparatively discussed on the basis of the Lennard-Jones potential. The first two ap- proaches approximate the high density fluid state well when the repulsive interparticle interactions become dominant, which is typically the case close to the freezing line. However, previous studies of Rosenfeld-Tarazona scaling for the isochoric heat capacity and its relation to isomorph theory reveal deviations for the temperature dependence. It turns out that a definition of a state region in which repulsive interactions dominate is required for achieving consistent results. The Rieman- nian thermodynamic scalar curvature R allows for such a classification, indicating predominantly repulsive interactions by R > 0. An analysis of the isomorphic character of the freezing line and the validity of Rosenfeld-Tarazona temperature scaling show that these approaches are consistent only in a small state region. ∗ Corresponding author.

We report a simulation study of isothermal supercritical neon in a range of densities intersecting the FL. Specifically, structural properties and single-particle and collective dynamics are scrutinized to unveil the onset of any anomalous behavior at the FL. We find that (i) the pair distribution function smoothly evolves across the FL displaying medium-range order, (ii) low-frequency transverse excitations are observed below the “Frenkel frequency”, and (iii) the high-frequency shear modulus does not vanish even for low-density fluids, indicating that positive sound dispersion characterizing the liquid-like region of the supercritical state is unrelated to transverse dynamics. These facts critically undermine the definition of the FL and its significance for any relevant partition of the supercritical phase.

The presented results unveil the mechanism and regimes of sound propagation in the liquid matter, and provide a compelling evidence for the adiabatic-to-isothermal longitudinal sound propagation transition. We introduce an Hamiltonian predicting low-frequency transverse sound propagation gaps which is confirmed by experimental findings and molecular dynamics calculations. As a result, a universal link is established between the positive sound dispersion (PSD) phenomenon and the origin of transverse sound propagation revealing the viscous-to-elastic crossover in liquids. The PSD and transverse phononic excitations evolve consistently with theoretical predictions. Both can be considered as a universal fingerprint of the dynamic response of a liquid which is also observable in a sub-domain of supercritical phase. The simultaneous disappearance of both these effects at elevated temperatures is a manifestation of the Frenkel line.

Ma & Matthias Ihme Recent experiments on pure fluids have identified distinct liquid-like and gas-like regimes even under Received: 26 January 2017 supercritical conditions. The supercritical liquid-gas transition is marked by maxima in response Accepted: 26 April 2017 functions that define a line emanating from the critical point, referred to as Widom line. However, the Published: xx xx xxxx structure of analogous state transitions in mixtures of supercritical fluids has not been determined, and it is not clear whether a Widom line can be identified for binary mixtures. Here, we present first evidence for the existence of multiple Widom lines in binary mixtures from molecular dynamics simulations. By considering mixtures of noble gases, we show that, depending on the phase behavior, mixtures transition from a liquid-like to a gas-like regime via distinctly different pathways, leading to phase relationships of surprising complexity and variety. Specifically, we show that miscible binary mixtures have behavior analogous to a pure fluid and the supercritical state space is characterized by a single liquid-gas transition. In contrast, immiscible binary mixture undergo a phase separation in which the clusters transition separately at different temperatures, resulting in multiple distinct Widom lines. The presence of this unique transition behavior emphasizes the complexity of the supercritical state to be expected in high-order mixtures of practical relevance. Supercritical fluids represent an intriguing state of matter, simultaneously exhibiting properties of liquids and gases. The supercritical region is commonly defined as a single-fluid phase beyond the critical point where there exists no physical observable that distinguishes a liquid from a gas.

The location of Frenkel line on the phase diagram is unknown for real fluids. Here, we map the Frenkel line for three important systems: CO2,H2O and CH4. This provides an important demarcation on the phase diagram of these systems, the demarcation that separates two distinct physical states with liquid-like and gas-like properties. We find that the Frenkel line can have similar trend as the melting line above the critical pressure.

  • Unified Phonon-Based Approach to the Thermodynamics of Solid, Liquid

Cai1 1 National Synchrotron Light Source II, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY 11973, USA 2 Volgograd State Technical University, Volgograd, 400005 Russia and 3 National Research University Higher School of Economics, Faculty of Mathematics, Moscow 117312, Russia We introduce an unified approach to states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) and describe the thermodynamics of the pressure-temperature phase diagram in terms of phonon excitations. We derive the effective Hamiltonian with low-energy cutoff in two transverse phonon polarisations (phononic band gaps) by breaking the symmetry in phonon interactions. Further, we construct the statistical mechanics of states of aggregation employing the Debye approximation. The introduced formalism covers the Debye theory of solids, the phonon theory of liquids, and thermodynamic 3 limits such as the Delong-Petit thermodynamic limit (cV = 3kB), the ideal gas limit (cV = 2 kB) and the new thermodynamic limit (cV = 2kB), dubbed here the Frenkel line thermodynamic limit. We discuss the phonon propagation and localisation effects in liquids above and below the Frenkel line, and explain the "fast sound" phenomenon. As a test for our theory we calculate velocity-velocity autocorrelation and pair distribution functions within the Green-Kubo formalism. We show the consistency between dynamics of phonons and pair correlations in the framework of the unified approach. New directions towards advancements in phononic band gaps engineering, hypersound manipulation technologies and exploration of exotic behaviour of fluids relevant to geo- and planetary sciences are discussed.
