Parallel hard cubes
Usefulness of the Model
Parallel hard cubes provide a simple statistical mechanical model, amenable to analytic and theoretical work as well as computer simulation. Beginning with Geilikman's work in Russia in 1950 a succession of studies have clarified [1] the low-density virial expansion (pressure as a power series in the density) {2} the ordering phase transition at moderate density, [3] the properties of mixtures of cubes of different sizes, and [4] the conceptual role of the model as an ideal-gas thermometer capable of measuring separately the tensor components of temperature, .
