The glass transition in molecules, colloids and grains: universality and specificity
Olivier Dauchot, François Ladieu, C. Patrick Royall
We highlight certain key achievements in experimental work on molecular, colloidal and granular glassformers. This short review considers these three classes of experimental system…
Self-propulsion of pure water droplets by spontaneous Marangoni stress driven motion
Ziane Izri, Marjolein N. van der Linden, Sébastien Michelin +1
We report spontaneous motion in a fully bio-compatible system consisting of pure water droplets in an oil-surfactant medium of squalane and monoolein. Water from the droplet is sol…
Elementary Excitation Modes in a Granular Glass above Jamming
Carolina Brito, Olivier Dauchot, Giulio Biroli +1
The dynamics of granular media in the jammed, glassy region is described in terms of "modes", by applying a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to the covariance matrix of the posit…
