Abstract
A method of molecular dynamics is used to calculate the pressure, internal energy, and isochoric heat capacity in a system of 2048 Lennard-Jones particles in the range of reduced temperatures from 0.1 to 2.0 and the range of densities from 0.001 to 1.15. Local equations of state for the gas, liquid, and crystalline phases are derived. The spinodals of a superheated (extended) liquid, supersaturated vapor, and superheated (extended) crystal are determined. It is shown that the spinodal of a supercooled liquid is nonexistent. An algorithm to calculate the lines of phase equilibria is constructed. The lines of liquid-gas, liquid-crystal, crystal-gas phase equilibria, and their metastable extensions are determined. It is shown that the metastable extensions of the melting and sublimation lines terminate at the spinodals of the liquid and crystal, respectively. The properties of final critical points in the lines of melting and sublimation are considered.
