Dear MDN members (apologies to those also on CCL),
The first full version of SimChemistry for Windows is now
available for download from
http://www.wartnaby.demon.co.uk
It uses on-screen molecular dynamics in two dimensions,
involving hard disk or Lennard-Jones molecules, together
with walls, pistons, graphs and text, as an educational tool
to explore the microscopic behaviour behind macroscopic
phenomena in physical chemistry.
While members of this group would not find it useful in
day-to-day work, you might find it of interest or use in
teaching theoretical or physical chemistry courses, in
lecture presentations or practical session demonstrations.
In particular individual molecules may be placed with
particular velocities and with user-definable interaction
parameters to demonstrate simple scattering processes.
Please see the website above for further details.
