Simulation Conditions:

Liquid Crystal/Flexible Polymer Mixture



We run the program named elsie, created by S.A. Langer, to determine the longer time results of our system as it phase separates and possibly order.

Example on how to read the following lists:

	A1: 	  phi0=0.76 	 T=1.08 

A1 refers to the suffix of files related to this run.

phi0=0.76 is the initial phi value.

T=1.08 is the temperature to which the system is quenched.


The system always begins as an isotropic, homogeneous mixture.



Runs started by S.C. Glotzer found in ~glotzer/lcp/1997/RUNS/A:

	A1: 	  phi0=0.76 	 T=1.08
	A2: 	  phi0=0.76 	 T=0.95
	A3: 	  phi0=0.68 	 T=1.08
	A4: 	  phi0=0.68 	 T=0.95
	A5: 	  phi0=0.68 	 T=1.01
	A6: 	  phi0=0.65 	 T=0.75
	A7: 	  phi0=0.97 	 T=0.80
	A8: 	  phi0=0.85 	 T=0.40
	A9: 	  phi0=0.55 	 T=0.50
	A10: 	  phi0=0.50 	 T=0.50
	A11: 	  phi0=0.76 	 T=0.75
	A12:	  phi0=0.97      T=0.50

Runs unstable with respect to phi: A1-A6, A9-A11

Runs unstable with respect to S: A7

Runs unstable with respect to phi and S: A8

	B9-r2:	  phi0=0.95      T=1.01
	B10-r2:   phi0=0.95      T=1.08

Runs unstable with respect to S: B1, B3, B9-r2, B10-r2
