Popis: By extending the theoretical framework derived in our previous study [Imaizumi et al., J. Chem. Phys. 153, 034701 (2020)], we successfully calculated the solid-liquid (SL) and solid-vapor (SV) interfacial tensions of a simple Lennard-Jones fluid around solid cylinders with nanometer-scale diameters from single equilibrium molecular dynamics systems in which a solid cylinder was vertically immersed into a liquid pool. The SL and SV interfacial tensions γ
