Popis: Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on molten (Dy1/3,K)Cl at 1093 K in order to compare the calculated self-exchange velocity (SEV), self-diffusion coefficient (D) and electrical con­ductivity with the corresponding experimental results. It was found that SEV, v, and D of potassium de­ crease with increasing concentration of dysprosium, as expected from the internal mobility, b. The decrease of bK, vK, and DK are ascribed to the tranquilization effect by Dy3+ which strongly inter­ acts with CP. On the contrary, bDy, vDy, and DDy increase with increasing concentration of Dy3+. This may be attributed to the stronger association of Dy3+ with Cl- due to the enhanced charge asym­ metry of the two cations neighboring to the Cl-. In addition, the sequence of the calculated SEV's, D's and electrical conductivities for the various compositions were consistent with those of the referred ex­ perimental results.
