Using isosbestic points to extract interactions from structure factors
A. A. Louis
Inverting scattering experiments to obtain effective interparticle interactions for particles in solution is generally a poorly conditioned problem. More accurate potentials can be…
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…
How to derive and parameterize effective potentials in colloid-polymer mixtures
P. G. Bolhuis, A. A. Louis
Polymer chains in colloid-polymer mixtures can be coarse-grained by replacing them with single soft particles interacting via effective polymer-polymer and polymer-colloid pair pot…
Beware of density dependent pair potentials
A. A. Louis
Density (or state) dependent pair potentials arise naturally from coarse-graining procedures in many areas of condensed matter science. However, correctly using them to calculate p…
Exotic fluids and crystals of soft polymeric colloids
Christos N Likos, Norman Hoffmann, Hartmut Lowen +1
We discuss recent developments and present new findings in the colloidal description of soft polymeric macromolecular aggregates. For various macromolecular architectures, such as…
