Abstract

The two-body (pair) contribution to the entropy of two-dimensional Yukawa systems is calculated and analyzed. It is demonstrated that in the vicinity of the fluid-solid (freezing) phase transition the pair entropy exhibits an abrupt jump in a narrow temperature range and this can be used to identify the freezing point. Relations to the full excess entropy and some existing freezing indicators are briefly discussed.
