Molecular dynamics simulation of the transition from dispersed to solid phase.
Molecular dynamics simulations in two dimensions of particles interacting with finite potentials comparable to k(B)T yield aggregates which cross over from a fractal to a compact crystalline morphology. Growth kinetics and aggregate size distributions evolve from nonequilibrium to equilibrium limits.
