Anisotropic Capillary Interactions and Jamming of Colloidal Particles Trapped at a Liquid-Fluid Interface
J. -B. Fournier, P. Galatola
We determine the capillary attraction and equilibrium configurations of particles trapped at a liquid-fluid interface due to the pinning of their contact-line. We calculate analyti…
Geometric phases and polarization patterns in multiple light scattering
A. C. Maggs, V. Rossetto
Multiple light scattering is widely used to characterize dense colloidal systems as well as in deep tissue imaging; experiments are often interpreted via a theory of diffusion of t…
Thermodynamic approach to dense granular matter: a numerical realization of a decisive experiment
Hernan A. Makse, Jorge Kurchan
Years ago Edwards proposed a thermodynamic description of dense granular matter, in which the grains (the `atoms' of the system) interact with inelastic forces. The approach is int…
Inwardly curved polymer brushes : Concave is not like Convex
Manoel Manghi, Miguel Aubouy, Cyprien Gay +1
Inwardly curved polymer brushes are present in cylindrical and spherical micelles or in membranes tubes and vesicles decorated with anchored polymers, and influence their stability…
Transverse electrokinetic and microfluidic effects in micro-patterned channels: lubrication analysis for slab geometries
Armand Ajdari
Off-diagonal (transverse) effects in micro-patterned geometries are predicted and analyzed within the general frame of linear response theory, relating applied presure gradient and…
Comment on "Elasticity Model of a Supercoiled DNA Molecule"
V. Rossetto, A. C. Maggs
We perform simulations to numerically study the writhe distribution of a stiff polymer. We compare with analytic results of Bouchiat and Mezard (PRL 80 1556- (1998); cond-mat/97060…
