摘要: This article reviews a new and general theory of nonuniform fluids that naturally incorporates molecular scale information into the classical van der Waals slowly varying interfaces. The method optimally combines two standard approximations, (mean) field to describe interface formation linear response (or Gaussian fluctuation) local structure. Accurate results have been found in many different applications simple these ideas may important implications for hydrophobic interactions water.
