Homogeneous nucleation of colloidal melts under the influence of shearing fields
Ronald Blaak, Stefan Auer, Daan Frenkel +1
We study the effect of shear flow on homogeneous crystal nucleation, using Brownian Dynamics simulations in combination with an umbrella sampling like technique. The symmetry break…
Polyelectrolyte-surfactant complex: phases of self-assembled structures
C. von Ferber, H. Lowen
We study the structure of complexes formed between ionic surfactants (SF) and a single oppositely charged polyelectrolyte (PE) chain. For our computer simulation we use the ``primi…
Molecular view of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in compressible Brownian fluids
A. Wysocki, H. Löwen
The onset of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability is studied a compressible Brownian Yukawa fluid mixture on the ``molecular'' length and time scales of the individual particles. As a m…
Colloidal brazil nut effect in sediments of binary charged suspensions
Ansgar Esztermann, Hartmut Löwen
Equilibrium sedimentation density profiles of charged binary colloidal suspensions are calculated by computer simulations and density functional theory. For deionized samples, we p…
