Coupling of sedimentation and liquid structure: influence on hard sphere nucleation

Nicholas Wood, John Russo, Francesco Turci +1

The discrepancy in nucleation rate densities between simulated and experimental hard spheres remains staggering and unexplained. Suggestively, more strongly sedimenting colloidal s…

Water-like anomalies as a function of tetrahedrality

John Russo, Kenji Akahane, Hajime Tanaka

Tetrahedral interactions describe the behaviour of the most abundant and technologically important materials on Earth, such as water, silicon, carbon, germanium, and countless othe…

Gelation as condensation frustrated by hydrodynamics and mechanical isostaticity

Hideyo Tsurusawa, Mathieu Leocmach, John Russo +1

Colloidal gels have unique mechanical and transport properties that stem from their bicontinous nature, in which a colloidal network is intertwined with a viscous solvent, and have…

Formation of porous crystals via viscoelastic phase separation

Hideyo Tsurusawa, John Russo, Mathieu Leocmach +1

Viscoelastic phase separation of colloidal suspensions can be interrupted to form gels either by glass transition or by crystallization. With a new confocal microscopy protocol, we…

How to Simulate Patchy Particles

Lorenzo Rovigatti, John Russo, Flavio Romano

Patchy particles is the name given to a large class of systems of mesoscopic particles characterized by a repulsive core and a discrete number of short-range and highly directional…
