Lattice hard spheres (or Lattice hard disks) refers to athermal lattice gas models, in which pairs of sites separated by less than some (short) distance, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \sigma } , cannot be simultaneously occupied.

Brief description of the models

Basically the differences between lattice hard spheres and the standard lattice gas model (Ising model) are the following:

  • An occupied site excludes the occupation of some of the neighbouring sites.
  • No energy interactions between pairs of occupied sites -apart of the hard core interactions- are considered.

These systems exhibit phase (order-disorder) transitions.

Three-dimensional lattices

For some results of three-dimensional lattice hard sphere systems see [1] (on a simple cubic lattice). The model defined on a simple cubic lattice with exclusion of only the nearest neighbour positions of an occupied site presents a continuous transition. If next-nearest neighbours are also excluded then the transition becomes first order.

Two-dimensional lattices

Square lattice

The model with exclusion of nearest neighbours presents a discontinuous transition. The critical behaviour at the transition corresponds to the same Universality class of the two-dimensional Ising Model, See Ref [2] for a simulation study of this system. For results of two-dimensional systems (lattice hard disks) with different exclusion criteria on a square lattice see [3].

Triangular lattice

The hard hexagon lattice model belongs to this kind of model. In this model an occupied site excluded the occupation of nearest neighbour positions. This model exhibits a continuous transition, and has been solved exactly (See references in the entry: hard hexagon lattice model). Other models defined on the triangular lattice (with more excluded positions) have been studied theoretically and by Monte Carlo simulation see [4] [5] [6] It seems that the model with first and second neighbour exclusion presents also a continuous transition, whereas if third neighbours are also excluded the transition becomes first order.
