Microscopic theory of liquid-vapour interface of simple fluids — •Vitalie Botan and Martin Oettel — Institut für Physik, WA 331, Johannes-Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Mainz, Germany

The liquid-vapor interface of Lennard-Jones fluids is examined by combining integral equation and density functional theory. In this approach a closure of reference hypernetted chain type to the inhomogeneous Ornstein-Zernike equation for the correlations functions is developed employing a bridge functional (instead of a bridge function) of a suitably chosen hard-sphere reference system. Using Tarazona's free energy functional for the reference system, the obtained self-consistent solutions for the density profiles and inhomogeneous two-body correlation functions are analyzed with respect to the mesoscopic capillary wave picture.
