Comparison of the predictions of literature intermolecular potentials for Ar–Xe and Kr–Xe with experiment: Two new potentials

Abstract

Literature intermolecular potentials for the Ar–Xe and Kr–Xesystems are analyzed and critically assessed as to their abilities to predict dilute gas bulk and microscopic properties. Two new potentials of the HFD-C form (HFDAX1 and HFDKX1) are proposed for the Ar–Xe and Kr–Xe interactions, respectively, which accurately predict a large number of properties.
