Lead clusters: different potentials, different structures

The lowest-energy structures of lead clusters interacting via a Gupta potential are obtained for N<151. Structures based on Marks decahedra dominate at the larger sizes. These results are very different from those obtained previously using a lead glue potential, and the origins of the differe...

Opis
Sažetak:The lowest-energy structures of lead clusters interacting via a Gupta potential are obtained for N<151. Structures based on Marks decahedra dominate at the larger sizes. These results are very different from those obtained previously using a lead glue potential, and the origins of the differences are related back to differences in the potential.
