Fig. 3.

Self-assembly phase diagrams for models A⁵⁰ (red) and A¹²⁸ (black). Elongated clusters form at concentrations above the critical micelle concentration, shown by the black x and red + symbols. The dashed line along the critical micelle concentration is a linear fit to the data. The critical micelle β ε is shown by the triangle. The high concentration boundary of the micellar fluid is shown by the solid line. Error bars were obtained as the standard deviation from three independent simulations. The snapshot is a representative configuration of model A⁵⁰ at the state point shown by the black circle symbol.
