Abstract:
For the computer-simulation of the quantum-statistical mechanics of
rare-gas-clusters,a Path Integral Monte-Carlo method is developed and
thermodynamical and geometric properties of the clusters are investigated.
First results show the important influence of zero-point-energy on the
structure for low temperature and lead to a discussion of "structural
transitions" in clusters.
