Effectiveness of the statistical potential in the description of fermions in a worm-algorithm path-integral Monte Carlo simulation of 3He atoms placed on a 4He layer adsorbed on graphite

Physical Review E (impact factor: 2.26). 01/2012; 85:016702. pp.016702

ABSTRACT We demonstrate the effectiveness of a statistical potential (SP) in the description of fermions in a wormalgorithm
path-integral Monte Carlo simulation of a few 3He atoms floating on a 4He layer adsorbed on graphite.
The SP in this work yields successful results, as manifested by the clusterization of 3He, and by the observation
that the 3He atoms float on the surface of 4He. We display the positions of the particles in 3D coordinate space,
which reveal clusterization of the 3He component. The correlation functions are also presented, which give further
evidence for the clusterization.
