Abstract

We examine by molecular dynamics methods the equilibrium velocity distribution of a finite sized system without using periodic boundary conditions. Extremely long runs with very short integration time steps were performed. The system is two dimensional with 196 host particles and 4 small test particles of low mass, the latter being subjected to an intense two dimensional corrugated force field. The smooth non-Maxwellian distributions obtained for the test particles show a remarkable consistency with those in papers I and II of this series.
