    Notes: Abstract. We investigate the structural properties of nitrogen molecular clusters (N2) n using classical Monte Carlo simulations and optimization methods. As is the case for argon clusters, we find polyicosahedral (anti-Mackay) geometries above 13 molecules, and multilayer icosahedra with uncomplete outer shell (Mackay) geometries below 55 molecules. The crossover point between these two kinds of structures is located near 42 molecules, whereas it is at only 31 for argon. With a simple three-body (Axilrod–Teller) potential added to the standard Lennard–Jones model, we interpret this difference as the result of the strong anisotropy of the molecular potential.

    Notes: Abstract: A new scheme for estimating densities of states at non zero angular momentum is proposed, using the Monte-Carlo (MC) and multiple histogram methods. It is based on a rigorous expression of the classical density of states for a rotating system. Two features appear: the centrifugal energy ( angular momentum and I the instantaneous inertia tensor in the center of mass reference frame) is added to the potential energy and the configurational densities of states is weighted by . Comparing the MC results for the 13-atom Lennard-Jones cluster and a calculation based on molecular dynamics (MD) shows that this weight is important if the rotation induces a structural change at a finite temperature. The MC algorithm proves to be much more efficient than MD, even at finite .
