| Abstract |

|
|
| Dubey and Gumbs have reported molecular-dynamics simulations for a two-dimensional, classical one-component plasma in the presence of a transverse magnetic field B. Here we combine their melting (m) curve for temperature T-m vs. B with thermodynamics to gain insight into the changes in magnetization M and entropy S across the melting line as functions of applied field B. The magnetization of the Coulomb liquid plays a central role, and yet is entirely due to particle repulsions. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. | |
