Understanding the Thermophysical Properties of Charged Fluids Using Molecular Simulations: A Journey from Molten Salts to Ionic Liquids and Back Again

Dr. Edward Maginn, Notre Dame University October 21, 2021 High temperature molten salts were some of the first liquids to be studied in the 1960s and 1970s using the newly invented methods of molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. Simple salts such as 1:1 alkali halides were particularly attractive systems to model, given computational and […]
