Abstract

Gas-liquid phase coexistence curves of the polarizable Stockmayer fluid in external electric fields are computed using molecular dynamics computer simulation. We study in particular the critical-point shift dependence on polarizability and external electric field distinguishing the cases of fixed charge density and fixed potential. The results are compared to a previously developed mean-field theory for the polarizable Stockmayer fluid in an external field. We also investigate the behavior of the isochoric heat capacity near gas-liquid criticality via finite-size scaling depending on polarizability and external field.
