Molecular simulation of the high-pressure phase equilibria of binary atomic fluid mixtures using the exponential-6 intermolecular potential

Molecular simulation results using the exponential-6 intermolecular potential are reported for the phase behaviour of the atomic binary mixtures of neon+xenon, helium+neon, helium+argon and helium+xenon. These binary mixtures exhibit both vapour–liquid and liquid–liquid phase equilibria up to very high pressures. Comparison with experiment indicates good overall agreement. The results indicate that the exponential-6 intermolecular potential is a useful generic potential for molecular simulation.
