We review results concerning the critical behavior of spin systems at equilibrium. We
consider the Ising and the general O (N)-symmetric universality classes, including the N→ 0 …

A critical review is given of status and perspectives of Monte Carlo simulations that address
bulk and interfacial phase transitions of ferromagnetic Ising models. First, some basic …

We study the universality class and critical properties of the electroweak theory at finite
temperature. Such critical behaviour is found near the endpoint mH= mH, c of the line of first …

Since determining experimentally a wide variety of thermophysical properties—even for a
very small portion of the already known room temperature ionic liquids (and their mixtures …

Significant methodological progress has been made over the years in the development of
Monte Carlo algorithms capable of predicting phase equilibrium properties for model …

After a review of the history and an assessment of the current status of the subject, we
present light-scattering data to determine the critical correlation-function exponents for an …

We review and discuss recent advances in the simulation of bulk critical phenomena in
model fluids. In particular we emphasize the extensions to finite-size scaling theory needed …

While we could argue that the goals of modelling fluid phase equilibria have not changed
greatly since the time of van der Waals, there is little doubt that the systems of interest have …

Before the application of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) to the study of polymer
structure, chain conformation studies were limited to light and small-angle x-ray scattering …
