Shape Fluctuations of a Droplet Containing a Polymer
M. Goulian, S. T. Milner
We consider the problem of an ideal polymer confined in a droplet. When the droplet radius is smaller than the (unconfined) polymer radius of gyration, the polymer entropy will dep…

Shear Alignment and Instability of Smectic Phases
Mark Goulian, Scott T. Milner
We consider the shear flow of well-aligned one-component smectic phases, such as thermotropic smectics and lamellar diblock copolymers, below the critical region. We show that, as…
