Abstract

The excess free energy f of the Yukawa one-component plasma is investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations. These simulations are performed in the canonical ensemble within hyperspherical boundary conditions and f is computed for various values of the coupling parameter Γ in the range 0.1≤Γ≤100 and of the screening parameter α* in the range 0.1≤α*≤6.
