Tailoring the flow of soft glasses by soft additives
E. Zaccarelli, C. Mayer, A. Asteriadi +8
We examine the vitrification and melting of asymmetric star polymers mixtures by combining rheological measurements with mode coupling theory. We identify two types of glassy state…
Crystal Nucleation of Colloidal Suspensions under Shear
Ronald Blaak, Stefan Auer, Daan Frenkel +1
We use Brownian Dynamics simulations in combination with the umbrella sampling technique to study the effect of shear flow on homogeneous crystal nucleation. We find that a homogen…
Is there a reentrant glass in binary mixtures?
E. Zaccarelli, H. Lowen, P. P. F. Wessels +3
By employing computer simulations for a model binary mixture, we show that a reentrant glass transition upon adding a second component only occurs if the ratio of the short-tim…
Adsorption of mono- and multivalent cat- and anions on DNA molecules
E. Allahyarov, H. Löwen, G. Gompper
Adsorption of monovalent and multivalent cat- and anions on a deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) molecule from a salt solution is investigated by computer simulation. The ions are mode…
