Liquid polymorphism, order-disorder transitions and anomalous behavior: A Monte Carlo study of the Bell–Lavis model for water

Liquid polymorphism, order-disorder transitions and anomalous behavior: A Monte Carlo study of the Bell–Lavis model for water

The Bell–Lavis model for liquid water is investigated through numerical simulations. The lattice-gas model on a triangular lattice presents orientational states and is known to present a highly bonded low density phase and a loosely bonded high density phase. We show that the model liquid-liquid transition is continuous, in contradiction …
