Density functional and computer simulation studies of colloidal suspensions
Colloidal suspensions of polyballs (polystyrene spheres) are good model systems for the study of both structural and dynamical properties of solids and liquids because the pair-wise interaction between the colloidal particles ... -
Equilibrium and nonequilibrium dynamics of dense liquids
Dense liquids do many interesting things: they freeze into crystals, and sometimes get trapped into glassy states along the way. Their behaviour becomes more unusual when they are driven far away from equilibrium, for ... -
Phase separation and dynamics of concentrated colloids : Diffusing wave spectroscopy and brownian dynamics simulations
The purpose of this chapter is to summarize the principal results and conclusions reported in this thesis and also to point out the scope of further work. The focus of this thesis is on static and dynamic aspects of the ... -
Study of coupled spin systems by flip-angle dependent one and two-dimensional NMR experiments
Flip-angle effects of the RF pulses on systems in non-equilibrium states are studied in detail for three different systems oriented in liquid crystalline phase ZLI-1167. It is shown that in the non-linear regime the effect ... -
Topics in the statistical mechanics of extended objects
In this thesis, we study some aspects of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of physical systems with extended spatial degrees of freedom. The specific systems we model are: The Abrikosov fiux lattice ...
