Measuring Colloidal Forces from Particle Position Deviations inside an Optical Trap

Djamel El Masri, Peter van Oostrum, Frank Smallenburg +4

We measure interaction forces between pairs of charged PMMA colloidal particles suspended in a relatively low-polar medium (5 8) directly from the deviations o…

Dynamic light scattering measurements in the activated regime of dense colloidal hard spheres

Djamel El Masri, Giovanni Brambilla, Matteo Pierno +4

We use dynamic light scattering and numerical simulations to study the approach to equilibrium and the equilibrium dynamics of systems of colloidal hard spheres over a broad range…

Probing the equilibrium dynamics of colloidal hard spheres above the mode-coupling glass transition

Giovanni Brambilla, Djamel El Masri, Matteo Pierno +4

We use dynamic light scattering and computer simulations to study equilibrium dynamics and dynamic heterogeneity in concentrated suspensions of colloidal hard spheres. Our study co…

Direct experimental evidence of a growing length scale accompanying the glass transition

Ludovic Berthier, Giulio Biroli, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud +5

Understanding glass formation is a challenge because the existence of a true glass state, distinct from liquid and solid, remains elusive: Glasses are liquids that have become too…
