Abstract Characterization of the morphology, identification of patterns and quantification of
order encountered in colloidal assemblies is essential for several reasons. First of all, it is …

Colloidal suspensions of monodisperse spherical particles have been extensively studied
since one of the main advantages of these systems is their similarity to atomic ones. This …

Direct imaging of nanoparticle solutions by liquid phase transmission electron microscopy
has enabled unique in situ studies of nanoparticle motion and growth. In the present work …

A two-dimensional (2D) solid lacks long-range positional order and is diffusive by means of
the cooperative motion of particles. We find from molecular dynamics simulations of hard …

Microgel particles are highly tuneable materials that are useful for a wide range of industrial
applications, such as drug delivery, sensing, nanoactuation, emulsion stabilisation and use …

Exploiting powerful techniques from physics and mathematics, this book studies animal
movement in ecology, with a focus on epidemic spread. Pulmonary syndrome is not only …

We simulate clustering, phase separation and hexatic ordering in a monolayered
suspension of active squirming disks subject to an attractive Lennard-Jones-like pairwise …

Microgel particles display an interesting duality with properties attributed typically both to
polymeric and colloidal systems. When adsorbed at a liquid‐liquid interface, this duality …

In this study, we present a detailed investigation of the morphology of binary colloidal
structures formed by self-assembly at air/water interface of particles of two different sizes …

Competing short-range attractive (SA) and long range repulsive (LR) particle interactions
can be used to describe three-dimensional charge-stabilized colloid or protein dispersions …
