Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulation of molten silica has Been undertaken for an extensive range of pressures using a recently derived potential mo del. Linear behavior is observed, in plotting (Z-1)V-2 vs density squa re, which is consistent with experimental results on compressed fluids . An increase in the medium range order and the number of higher coord inated silicons and oxygens is observed under pressure.
