    Abstract

    The shear stress relaxation and temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficient, viscosity and thermal conductivity in dense Lennard-Jones (LJ) systems were studied. The structural, thermodynamic and transport properties of the liquid and solid branches of the system of N=500 LJ along a high-density isochore in a systematic manner were calculated. It was shown that in the equilibrium system the diffusion coefficient decreases linearly with a decrease in temperature. It was found that at the melting temperature there is a sudden drop in diffusion due to crystallization caused by periodic boundary conditions and small system size.
