Abstract
We generalize previous approach of Khrapak and Morfill [J. Chem. Phys. 134, 094108 (2011)] to construct simple and sufficiently accurate freezing and melting equations for the conventional Lennard-Jones (LJ) system to n-6 LJ systems, using the accurate results for the triple points of these systems published by Sousa et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 136, 174502 (2012)].
Highlights
It was observed in Ref. 1 that several phenomenological approaches[2,3,4,5] to locate the melting/freezing transition in simple systems of interacting particles predict the same functional dependence of the temperature on liquid and solid densities at coexistence, when applied to the conventional Lennard-Jones (LJ) potential

The coefficients BL,S were determined from the triple point parameters of the LJ fluid
