Random Sequential Adsorption Of Parallel Squares, Benjamin J. Brosilow, Robert M. Ziff, R. Dennis Vigil

R. Dennis Vigil

The random sequential adsorption of parallel (aligned) squares is studied by computer simulation. A new precise value of the maximum (jamming) coverage is found: I9J =0.562 009+0.000004. The dynamics for times t ~6000 agree with Swendsen s prediction 0J—0(t)-c(lnt)/t. Various twopoint correlation functions are measured, and the effects of the finite size and the discretization of the adsorbing surface are also investigated.
