    Abstract:
    A density functional (DF) approach and grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations were performed to account for the properties of Ne adsorbed on a Cs surface. It was shown that a wetting transition for the Ne/Cs can be determined if the ab initio potential is used to describe the fluid-substrate interaction.
