Abstract

We propose a new unified field‐theoretic path integral treatment of liquid–gas transition occurring in simple neutral fluids and neutral monodisperse polymer solutions. Obtained theoretical results indicate that both systems belong to the same Ising‐type universality class which is strongly supported by the most recent experimental results on the liquid–gas transitions.
