Long-Lived Non-Equilibrium Interstitial-Solid-Solutions in Binary Mixtures

I. Ríos de Anda, F. Turci, R. Sear +1

We perform particle resolved experimental studies on the heterogeneous crystallisation process of two compo- nent mixtures of hard spheres. The components have a size ratio of 0.39…

On the electrical double layer contribution to the interfacial tension of protein crystals

R. P. Sear, P. B. Warren

We study the electrical double layer at the interface between a protein crystal and a salt solution or a dilute solution of protein, and estimate the double layer's contribution to…

Homogeneous nucleation near a second phase transition and Ostwald's step rule

Z. Tavassoli, R. P. Sear

Homogeneous nucleation of the new phase of one transition near a second phase transition is considered. The system has two phase transitions, we study the nucleation of the new pha…

Homogeneous nucleation of a non-critical phase near a continuous phase transition

Richard P. Sear

Homogeneous nucleation of a new phase near a second, continuous, transition, is considered. The continuous transition is in the metastable region associated with the first-order ph…

Fluid-fluid transitions of hard spheres with a very short-range attraction

Richard P. Sear

Hard spheres with an attraction of range a tenth to a hundredth of the sphere diameter are constrained to remain fluid even at densities when monodisperse particles at equilibrium…

Absence of the liquid phase when the attraction is not pairwise additive

Richard P. Sear

Recent work on charged colloidal suspensions with very low levels of added salt has suggested that although pairs of the colloidal particles repel, clusters of the particles attrac…

A coil-globule transition of a semiflexible polymer driven by the addition of spherical particles

Richard P. Sear

The phase behaviour of a single large semiflexible polymer immersed in a suspension of spherical particles is studied. All interactions are simple excluded volume interactions and…
