We attempt a classification of different colloidal gels based on colloid–colloid interactions.
We discriminate primarily between non-equilibrium and equilibrium routes to gelation, the …

This review focuses on recent developments in the theoretical, numerical and experimental
study of slow dynamics in colloidal systems, with a particular emphasis on the glass …

This book gives a pedagogical introduction to the physics of amorphous solids and related
disordered condensed matter systems. Important concepts from statistical mechanics such …

We report theoretical and numerical evaluations of the phase diagram for patchy colloidal
particles of new generation. We show that the reduction of the number of bonded nearest …

We investigate the competition between spinodal decomposition and dynamical arrest using
aqueous solutions of the globular protein lysozyme as a model system for colloids with short …

The authors numerically study a simple fluid composed of particles having a hard-core
repulsion, complemented by two short-ranged attractive (sticky) spots at the particle poles …

We report an extensive numerical study of a charged colloidal system with competing short-
range depletion attraction and long-range electrostatic repulsion. By analyzing the cluster …

In this review, we discuss recent advances in the investigation of colloidal systems
interacting via a combination of short-range attraction and long-range repulsion. The …

We simulate a binary mixture of colloidal patchy particles with two and three patches,
respectively, for several relative concentrations and hence relative average valences. For …

We report theoretical and numerical evaluations of the phase diagram for a model of patchy
particles. Specifically, we study hard spheres whose surface is decorated by a small number …
