- Title:
- Non-Gaussian distribution of displacements for Lennard-Jones particles in equilibrium
- Abstract:
- Most mesoscale simulation methods assume Gaussian distributions of velocity-like quantities. These quantities are not true velocities, however, but rather time-averaged velocities or displacements of particles. We show that there is a large range of coarse-graining scales where the assumption of a Gaussian distribution of these displacements fails, and a more complex distribution is required to adequately express these distribution functions of displacements.
