Rotational averaging-out gravitational sedimentation of colloidal dispersions and phenomena

Djamel El Masri, Teun Vissers, Stephane Badaire +7

We report on the differences between colloidal systems left to evolve in the earth's gravitational field and the same systems for which a slow continuous rotation averaged out the…

Brambilla, et al. Reply

Giovanni Brambilla, Djamel El Masri, Matteo Pierno +4

Brambilla, et al. Reply: van Megen and Williams (vMW) question our recent claim that dense colloidal hard spheres enter at large volume fraction ϕa dynamical regime not observed in…

Subdiffusion and intermittent dynamic fluctuations in the aging regime of concentrated hard spheres

Djamel El Masri, Ludovic Berthier, Luca Cipelletti

We study the nonequilibrium aging dynamics in a system of quasi-hard spheres at large density by means of computer simulations. We find that, after a sudden quench to large density…

Collective Diffusion of Colloidal Hard Rods in Smectic Liquid Crystals: Effect of Particle Anisotropy

Alessandro Patti, Djamel El Masri, René van Roij +1

We study the layer-to-layer diffusion in smectic-A liquid crystals of colloidal hard rods with different length-to-diameter ratios using computer simulations. The layered arrangeme…

Dynamical Heterogeneities and Cooperative Motion in Smectic Liquid Crystals

A. Patti, D. El Masri, R. van Roij +1

Using simulations of hard rods in smectic-A states, we find non-gaussian diffusion and heterogeneous dynamics due to the equilibrium periodic smectic density profiles, which give r…
