Abstract
Molecular-dynamics calculations have been performed for noble-gas (krypton) surfaces. As pair interaction between the atoms we used the potential of Barker et al. This potential is consistent with a wide range of experimental data. The calculations have been performed for temperatures of 7 K, 70 K and 102 K. For T = 102 K we observe the effect of surface pre-melting, and this effect is obviously much more pronounced in our system than in the case of a Lennard-Jones system. Furthermore, we have investigated the interplanar spacing of the atom layers relative to each other. We found that there are not only large quantitative differences between the results for our system and a Lennard-Jones system but there are also qualitative differences.
