Glass transition in colloidal monolayers controlled by light-induced caging
Abolfazl Ahmadirahmat, Michele Caraglio, Vincent Krakoviack +1
We theoretically investigate the glass-transition problem for a quasi-two-dimensional colloidal dense suspension modulated by a one-dimensional periodic external potential as impos…
Mode-coupling theory of the glass transition for a liquid in a periodic potential
Abolfazl Ahmadirahmat, Michele Caraglio, Vincent Krakoviack +1
We derive a microscopic theory for the structural dynamics in the vicinity of the glass transition for a liquid exposed to a one-dimensional periodic potential. The periodic potent…
Dynamics of fluids in quenched-random potential energy landscapes: a mode-coupling theory approach
Thomas Konincks, Vincent Krakoviack
Motivated by a number of recent experimental and computational studies of the dynamics of fluids plunged in quenched-disordered external fields, we report on a theoretical investig…
Mode-coupling theory of the glass transition for confined fluids
Simon Lang, Rolf Schilling, Vincent Krakoviack +1
We present a detailed derivation of a microscopic theory for the glass transition of a liquid enclosed between two parallel walls relying on a mode-coupling approximation. This geo…
Statistical mechanics of homogeneous partly pinned fluid systems
Vincent Krakoviack
The homogeneous partly pinned fluid systems are simple models of a fluid confined in a disordered porous matrix obtained by arresting randomly chosen particles in a one-component b…
Relating monomer to center-of-mass distribution functions in macromolecular fluids: extension to arbitrary systems
V. Krakoviack
In the framework of the polymer reference interaction site model (PRISM) extended to incorporate the centers of mass (CM) of the groups of monomers constitutive of the macromolecul…
Mode-coupling theory for the slow collective dynamics of fluids adsorbed in disordered porous media
V. Krakoviack
We derive a mode-coupling theory for the slow dynamics of fluids confined in disordered porous media represented by spherical particles randomly placed in space. Its equations disp…
Multi-scale coarse-graining of diblock copolymer self-assembly: from monomers to ordered micelles
Carlo Pierleoni, Chris Addison, Jean-Pierre Hansen +1
Starting from a microscopic lattice model, we investigate clustering, micellization and micelle ordering in semi-dilute solutions of AB diblock copolymers in a selective solvent. T…
Coarse-graining diblock copolymer solutions: a macromolecular version of the Widom-Rowlinson model
C. I. Addison, J. P. Hansen, V. Krakoviack +1
We propose a systematic coarse-grained representation of block copolymers, whereby each block is reduced to a single ``soft blob'' and effective intra- as well as intermolecular in…
An integral equation approach to effective interactions between polymers in solution
V. Krakoviack, B. Rotenberg, J. -P. Hansen
We use the thread model for linear chains of interacting monomers, and the ``polymer reference interaction site model'' (PRISM) formalism to determine the monomer-monomer pair corr…
Site-averaging in the integral equation theory of interaction site models of macromolecular fluids: An exact approach
V. Krakoviack
A simple "trick" is proposed, which allows to perform exactly the site-averaging procedure required when developing integral equation theories of interaction site models of macromo…
Influence of solvent quality on effective pair potentials between polymers in solution
V. Krakoviack, J. P. Hansen, A. A. Louis
Solutions of interacting linear polymers are mapped onto a system of ``soft'' spherical particles interacting via an effective pair potential. This coarse-graining reduces the indi…
Coarse-graining polymers as soft colloids
A. A. Louis, P. G. Bolhuis, R. Finken +3
We show how to coarse grain polymers in a good solvent as single particles, interacting with density-independent or density-dependent interactions. These interactions can be betwee…
Relating monomer to centre-of-mass distribution functions in polymer solutions
V. Krakoviack, J. P. Hansen, A. A. Louis
A relationship between the measurable monomer-monomer structure factor, and the centre-of-mass (CM) structure factor of dilute or semi-dilute polymer solutions is derived from Orns…
