“…Despite a heavy investment of computer time, the condensation transition in DHS fluids has not been observed directly in simulations of systems with sufficient size, and with suitable treatments of the long-range dipolar interactions [6][7][8][9][10]. Many attempts have been made to "sneak up" on a phase transition by simulating models that correspond to pure DHSs in some limit, but the transition always disappears before the limit is reached [11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. It has been shown theoretically, and with several different approaches, that chain formation may preclude fluid-fluid phase separation [18][19][20][21].…”
