摘要
Monte Carlo calculations of the thermodynamic properties of a classical nearest neighbor Lennard-Jones solid have been carried out using an alternate to the usual Metropolis algorithm. The new algorithm is particularly convenient for the study of solids. Unbiased estimators are used to obtain values for the properties and their standard deviations. The authors results are combined with recent results of E. R. Cowley to give a set of best estimates.
