a Real-space mapping of the kinetic energy of each particle Ki in a single-component 3D LJ fluid. Here we show a snapshot at time t = 45. The thermodynamic variables are chosen as ρ = 0.33 and T = 0.01. Particle colour represents the kinetic energy of the particle. b Phase separation in 2D colloidal suspension. A snapshot of a phase-separating 2D colloidal suspension (ϕ = 38%) at zero temperature at t = 500. Here we show the pressure field p in the solvent together with the position of colloids. The colour bar represents the pressure.
