Computer simulation of dipolar fluids. Dependence of the dielectric constant on system size: a comparative study of Ewald sum and reaction field approaches

We report Monte Carlo calculations on a Stockmayer fluid ( μ*=1, T*=1, ρ*=0.8) using both Ewald sum (EW) and reaction field (RF) approaches. We investigate the dependence of dielectric constant on system size. This dependence is less marked for EW than for RF. However, for a given number of particle...
