Kibble-Zurek mechanism in colloidal monolayers
Sven Deutschländer, Patrick Dillmann, Georg Maret +1
The Kibble-Zurek mechanism describes the evolution of topological defect structures like domain walls, strings, and monopoles when a system is driven through a second order phase t…
Specific heat in two-dimensional melting
Sven Deutschländer, Antonio M. Puertas, Georg Maret +1
We report the specific heat around the melting transition(s) of micrometer-sized superparamagnetic particles confined in two dimensions, calculated from fluctuations of posit…
Two-dimensional melting under quenched disorder
Sven Deutschländer, Tobias Kruppa, Hartmut Löwen +2
We study the influence of quenched disorder on the two-dimensional melting behavior by using both video-microscopy of superparamagnetic colloidal particles and computer simulations…
