Adsorption of atoms and fluids on spherical surfaces

The adsorption of helium on buckyballs at zero temperature is studied using finite range density functional and path integral Monte Carlo methods. The results include strong binding for Cn fullerenes (n>˜20) with a maximum number of adsorbed helium atoms at saturated vapor pressure, and a tra...
