Thermal motions in complex liquids: the 2D Lennard-Jones liquid

Alexander Z. Patashinski, Rafal Orlik, Mark A. Ratner

Thermal motions in the 2D Lennard-Jones liquid near solidification are studied at equilibrium and under shear flow conditions. At the temperatures of the study, the liquid is signi…

Conductive grain systems: relaxation under strong electric fields

Alexander Z. Patashinski, Mark A. Ratner

In an external electric field, a system of conductive grains embedded in a dielectric matrix becomes unstable and relaxes towards a conductive state. We describe and discuss the el…

Microphase separation as the cause of structural complexity in 2D liquids

Alexander Z. Patashinski, Mark A. Ratner, Bartosz A. Grzybowski +2

Complex behavior in glassforming liquids is associated with formation of a mosaic of different structures. Using bond order parameters together with topological characteristics of…

What makes a complex liquid complex?

Alexander Z. Patashinski, Rafal Orlik, Antoni C. Mitus +2

We view a complex liquid as a network of bonds connecting each particle to its nearest neighbors; the dynamics of this network is a chain of discrete events signaling particles rea…

Spectral oscillations in backscattering of light from a biological cell

Alexander Heifetz, Alexander Patashinski, Vadim Backman

Possible origins of the experimentally observed beat-like signal in elastic light backscattering from an epithelial biological cell are identified. The source of the beat-like sign…

Heterophasic oscillations in nanometer-size systems

Alexander Patashinski, Mark Ratner

Singularities in macroscopic systems at discontinuous phase transitions are replaced in finite systems by sharp but continuous changes. Both the energy differences between metastab…
