Light-activated Janus particles in geometrically confined binary solvent
Michał Przerwa, Piotr Nowakowski, Takeaki Araki +1
The coupled dynamics of local fields exert a drastic influence on the light-activated self-propulsion of a Janus particle in a binary solvent under spatial confinement. In this wor…
Binary colloidal mixtures in near-critical binary solvents
Nima Farahmand Bafi, Robert Evans, Anna Maciolek
The phase behavior of a single type of colloid C suspended in near-critical solvents is known to be very rich. Motivated in part by recent experiments we consider a mixture of two…
Composite colloidal assembly by critical Casimir forces
T. E. Kodger, N. Farahmand Bafi, M. Labbé-Laurent +3
We investigate the phase behaviour of mixtures of two populations of colloidal particles dispersed in a binary solvent system near its critical composition. The surfaces of particl…
Global non-equilibrium thermodynamics of stationary states applied to the Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Robert Hołyst, Paweł Jan Żuk, Konrad Giżyński +3
Classical thermodynamics describes physical systems in thermodynamic equilibrium, characterized in particular by the absence of macroscopic motion. Global non-equilibrium thermodyn…
Partition function for several Ising model interface structures
Alessio Squarcini, Piotr Nowakowski, Douglas B. Abraham +1
We employ a procedure that enables us to calculate the excess free energies for a finite Ising cylinder with domain walls analytically. This procedure transparently covers all poss…
Direction of spontaneous processes in non-equilibrium systems with movable/permeable internal walls
Robert Hołyst, Paweł Jan Żuk, Anna Maciołek +2
The second law of equilibrium thermodynamics explains the direction of spontaneous processes in a system after removing internal constraints. When the system only exchanges energy…
