Dimer and Trimer Formation in Dense Gaseous Argon - A MD Study
Formation and dissociation rates of dimers and trimers in relatively dense ((0.61-1.21) x 10(21) atoms/cm(3)) argon at 100-140 K were studied by MD simulation. Rate constants and equilibrium constants were evaluated, and their magnitudes and behavior agreed with previous values and predictions where available. The effects of local densities on the kinetics are discussed.
