Phys. Rev. E 68, 052501 (2003) [4 pages]Characterization of the order-disorder transition of a charged hard-sphere modelReceived 31 July 2003; published 25 November 2003 Monte Carlo simulations at constant pressure are used to characterize the structure of the restricted primitive model in the tetragonal-ordered solid phase. A method to estimate the location of the order-disorder transition and the densities of the coexistence phases is discussed. The results support the weakly first-order character of the transition. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
