Polyelectrolyte-induced peeling of charged multilamellar vesicles
Laurence Ramos, Edith Vivares
We study mixtures of charged surfactants, which alone in solution form uni- and multilamellar vesicles, and oppositely charged polyelectrolytes (PEs). The phase behavior is investi…

Shear-melting of a hexagonal columnar crystal by proliferation of dislocations
L. Ramos, F. Molino
A hexagonal columnar crystal undergoes a shear-melting transition above a critical shear rate or stress. We combine the analysis of the shear-thinning regime below the melting with…

Equilibrium Onions?
L. Ramos, D. Roux, P. D. Olmsted +1
We demonstrate the possibility of a stable equilibrium multi-lamellar (``onion'') phase in pure lamellar systems (no excess solvent) due to a sufficiently negative Gaussian curvatu…
