Abstract A study of the one-dimensional lattice gas of positive and negative charges interacting via the logarithmic potential is continued. The two-particle distribution functions are evaluated exactly at the couplingsΓ=2 and 4. It is proved that theΓ=4 isotherm exhibits an insulator-conductor phase transition at the reduced density 1/2, and the scaling behavior of the correlations near this critical point is given. Similarities of the conjectured phase diagram with that of a one-dimensional one-component log-gas in a periodic potential are noted.
