Structure, thermodynamics, and rearrangement mechanisms in gold clusters—insights from the energy landscapes framework

We consider finite-size and temperature effects on the structure of model Au(N) clusters (30 ≤ N ≤ 147) bound by the Gupta potential. Equilibrium behaviour is examined in the harmonic superposition approximation, and the size-dependent melting temperature is also bracketed using molecular dynamics s...
