For the special symmetric case of the Restricted Primitive Model, Das et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 215701 (2011)] has recently discovered, through Monte Carlo simulations, that the Stillinger-Lovett or second-moment sum-rule fails at criticality. We critically discuss a possible explanation for this unexpected behavior. On the other hand the fourth-moment sum-rule turns out to be able to account for the results of the simulations at criticality.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-11-15T22:29:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "moment sum-rules", "criticality", "fourth-moment sum-rule turns", "moment charge-charge sum-rules", "monte carlo simulations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
