Computer simulation of binary mixtures of anisotropic hard particles

We performed isobaric Monte Carlo simulations of binary mixtures of hard disc-like particles called spherical discs. The shape of the spherical discs is determined by a sweep of the centre of a sphere of radius L on a disc of radius D. Simulations of binary mixtures of 370 spherical discs with D/L 2.5 and 110 spherical discs with D/L = 5 indicated microphase separation of column clusters of larger discs in a fluid of smaller discs
