Phase coexistence in clusters: An 'experimental' isobar and an elementary model.

Examines the temperature dependence of the coexistence ratios of phaselike forms of atomic clusters of two kinds, a homogeneous cluster bound by pairwise Lennard-Jones forces that simulates argon and a binary, ionic cluster simulating. Isothermal molecular dynamics; Analytical model based on highly simplified densities of states; Phase behavior of alkali halide cluster.
