title: Percolation threshold parameters of fluids.
abstract: Extensive Monte Carlo simulations on three qualitatively different model supercritical fluids (square-well fluid, Lennard-Jonesium, and primitive water) have been performed to examine percolation threshold parameters for continuum (correlated) models and their relation to general results valid for random lattice models; random-site percolation simple-cubic lattice has therefore been considered as well. Two different bond criteria, the configurational and self-bound ones, defining a cluster have been used. In addition to the percolation threshold occupation probability pc and the percolation threshold fluid density rhoc, the correlation length exponent nu and the wrapping probability at the percolation threshold Rw,c have also been evaluated. It is found that parameters nu and Rw,c exhibit not only strong temperature dependence but also, unlike the case of lattice systems, dependence on the nature of the system considered and the employed definition of the cluster.
