Argon clusters thermodynamic properties

In an attempt both to include quantum corrections and to treat anharmonic effects, Etters, Kanney, Gillis, and Kaelberger have calculated the thermodynamic properties of clusters using the self-consistent phonon approximation. - Within this approximation they calculated internal energies, free energies, specific heats, and entropies for argon clusters. 

Recently we reported calculations on the thermodynamic properties of argon clusters modeled by pairwise additive Lennard-Jones interactions...
