Liquid Hertz Contact: softness of weakly deformed drops on non-wetting substrates
Frédéric Chevy, Alexei Chepelianskii, David Quéré +1
The behavior of weakly deformed drops on non wetting surfaces is usually described using linear models. We show that these simple pictures cannot account for measurements of the dy…
Strong screening in the plum pudding model
A. D. Chepelianskii, F. Closa, E. Raphael +1
We study a generalized Thomson problem that appears in several condensed matter settings: identical point-charge particles can penetrate inside a homogeneously charged sphere, with…
On the effective charge of hydrophobic polyelectrolytes
Alexei Chepelianskii, Farshid Mohammad-Rafiee, Elie Raphael
In this paper we analyze the behavior of hydrophobic polyelectrolytes. It has been proposed that this system adopts a pearl-necklace structure reminiscent of the Rayleigh instabili…
