	abstract = {Monte Carlo simulations are used to investigate the temperature and pressure (density) dependence of ion association in the restricted primitive model. It is shown that at temperatures below the critical temperature T-c the vapor consists almost exclusively of strongly bound ion pairs at or near contact. Significant ion-pair dissociation begins at temperatures very near T-c. This raises the possibility that compositional fluctuations between strongly bound and free lions influence the critical behavior. We note qualitative similarities between the present results and the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition in the two-dimensional Coulomb gas. [S1063-651X(99)03107-4].},

	abstract = {Grand canonical Monte Carlo calculations are used to investigate the demixing transition in model ionic solutions where the solvent is explicitly included. Charged hard sphere ions in hard sphere, dipolar hard sphere and quadrupolar hard sphere solvents are considered and the results are compared with the primitive (continuum solvent) model. For all solvents considered, it is found that the demixing transition is in the same general region of the phase diagram and is roughly described by liquid-vapor equilibrium in the primitive model. However, details such as the precise location of the critical point and the width of the unstable region depend upon the exact nature of the solvent. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics.
