We have used molecular dynamics simulations to determine the transport properties of liquid pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), an important energetic material. The density, ρ, self-diffusion coefficient, , thermal conductivity, κ, and shear viscosity, μ, have been computed over pressures and temperatures relevant to the subshock regime (up to 1000 K and a few GPa), where PETN is known to melt prior to initiation. We find that the thermal conductivity κ(, ) can be represented by a simple analytical function that fits the data points with very good accuracy, even beyond the subshock regime, up to 2000 K and 20 GPa.

The dynamical behavior of binary mixtures consisting of highly charged colloidal particles is studied by means of Brownian dynamics simulations. We investigate differently sized, but identically charged particles with nearly identical interactions between all species in highly dilute suspensions. Different short-time self-diffusion coefficients induce, mediated by electrostatic interactions, a coupling of both self and collective dynamics of differently sized particles: the long-time self-diffusion coefficients of a larger species are increased by the presence of a more mobile, smaller species and .

We present a quasi-elastic neutron scattering study of liquid deuterium hydride carried out using the Disk Chopper Spectrometer at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Under saturated vapor pressure, the self-diffusion constant of deuterium hydride obeys an Arrhenius law D=D0exp-EA/kBT, where the prefactor D0 is given by D0=9.5±1.

A comparison is made between three simple approximate formulas for the configurational adiabat (i.e., constant excess entropy, sex) lines in a Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluid, one of which is an analytic formula based on a harmonic approximation, which was derived by Heyes et al.
