Simple ions control the elasticity of calcite gels via interparticle forces
Teresa Liberto, Catherine Barentin, Jean Colombani +4
Suspensions of calcite in water are employed in many industrial fields such as paper filling, pharmaceutics, heritage conservation or building construction, where the rheological p…
Probing the Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem in a Perrin-like Experiment
Jean Colombani, Laure Petit, Christophe Ybert +1
In this Letter, we present a new experimental approach to investigate the effective temperature concept as a generalization of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) for nonequi…
Influence of fine particles on the stability of a humid granular pile
Xixi Huang, Sandrine Bec, J. Colombani
We have investigated by rotating drum experiments the influence of a small amount of fine particles on the stability of a granular heap. The fine particles are shown to have a stro…
Measurement of the pure dissolution rate constant of a mineral in water
Jean Colombani
We present here a methodology, using holographic interferometry, enabling to measure the pure surface reaction rate constant of the dissolution of a mineral in water, unambiguously…
Holographic interferometry study of the dissolution and diffusion of gypsum in water
Jean Colombani, Jacques Bert
We have performed holographic interferometry measurements of the dissolution of the (010) plane of a cleaved gypsum single crystal in pure water. These experiments have provided th…
Holographic interferometry for the study of liquids
Jean Colombani, Jacques Bert
Holography is an optical technique enabling to record phase objects. Holographic interferometry uses this faculty to make a phase object interfere with a memory of itself at a prec…
Toward a complete description of nucleation and growth in liquid-liquid phase separation
Jean Colombani, Jacques Bert
The phase separation mechanism of a binary liquid mixture off-critically quenched in its miscibility gap is nucleation and growth, its homogeneous phase reaching a metastable equil…
Crack patterns in drying protein solution drops
Celine Annarelli, Jean Fornazero, Jacques Bert +1
A deposited drop of bovine serum albumin salt solution experiences both gelation and fracturation during evaporation. The cracks appearing at the edge of the gelling drop are regul…
Early sedimentation and crossover kinetics in an off-critical phase-separating liquid mixture
Jean Colombani, Jacques Bert
Early sedimentation in a liquid mixture off-critically quenched in its miscibility gap was investigated with a light attenuation technique. The time evolution of the droplets distr…
