Direct Observation of Entropic Stabilization of bcc Crystals Near Melting
Joris Sprakel, Alessio Zaccone, Frans Spaepen +2
Crystals with low latent heat are predicted to melt from an entropically stabilized body-centered cubic symmetry. At this weakly first-order transition, strongly correlated fluctua…

Direct observation of percolation in the yielding transition of colloidal glasses
Antina Ghosh, Zoe Budrikis, Vijayakumar Chikkadi +3
When strained beyond the linear regime, soft colloidal glasses yield to steady-state plastic flow in a way that is similar to the deformation of conventional amorphous solids. Due…
