The program implements a molecular dynamics simulation of a Lennard-Jones fluid in two dimensions. The particles are initialized in the middle third of the simulation cell. The number of particles in each of the three cells is plotted.
The algorithm for simulating the evolution of the model can be summarized by the following steps:

This simulation was created by Wolfgang Christian using the Easy Java Simulations (Ejs) modeling tool. It is based on a Java program from the Statistical and Thermal Physics Project. You can modify this simulation if you have Ejs installed by right-clicking within a plot and selecting "Open Ejs Model" from the pop-up menu item. Information about Ejs is available at: <http://www.um.es/fem/Ejs/>.
