Based on the statistical associating fluid theory across the critical point (SAFT-CP), an analytic equation of state is established in this work for non-polar mixtures. With two binary parameters, this equation of state can be used to calculate not only vapor-liquid equilibria but also critical properties of binary non-polar alkane mixtures with acceptable deviations.展开更多

The calculated results are reasonably consistent with the experimental data. By comparing the key observables of the states at the critical point of U_(πv)(5)-O_(πv)(6) transition with the experimental data and calculated results, we show that the ^(124)Te is a possible nucleus at the critical point of the second-order phase transition from vibration to unstable rotation, and such a critical point exhibits slight triaxial rotation. The 0_2^+ state of ^(124)Te can be interpreted as the lowest state of the first-excited family of the intrinsic levels in the critical point symmetry.展开更多

In this paper, the effects of elliptic flow and resonance decay process on the Kurtosis have been studied with Monte Carlo event generators in Au + Au collisions at sNN^(1/2) = 200 GeV. The results show that the Kurtosis is not sensitive to elliptic flow and resonance decay process.展开更多
