Mean path length inside non-scattering refractive objects

Matt Majic, Walter R. C. Somerville, Eric C. Le Ru

It has recently been argued that the geometric-optics mean path length of rays inside a refractive object under Lambertian illumination is independent of the scattering strength of…

Quasicrystal formation in binary soft matter mixtures

A. Scacchi, W. R. C. Somerville, D. M. A. Buzza +1

Using a strategy that may be applied in theory or in experiments, we identify the regime in which a model binary soft matter mixture forms quasicrystals. The system is described us…

Pattern formation in two-dimensional hard-core/soft-shell systems with variable soft shell profiles

Walter R. C. Somerville, Adam D. Law, Marcel Rey +3

Hard-core/soft shell (HCSS) particles have been shown to self-assemble into a remarkably rich variety of structures under compression due to the simple interplay between the hard-c…

Approximate T-matrix and optical properties of spheroidal particles to third order in size parameter

Matt R. A. Majic, Luke Pratley, Dmitri Schebarchov +3

We here calculate the series expansion of the T-matrix for a spheroidal particle in the small-size/long-wavelength limit, up to third lowest order with respect to the size paramete…

Density functional theory for the crystallization of two-dimensional dipolar colloidal alloys

W. R. C. Somerville, J. L. Stokes, A. M. Adawi +3

Two-dimensional mixtures of dipolar colloidal particles with different dipole moments exhibit extremely rich self-assembly behaviour and are relevant to a wide range of experimenta…
