More About This Title PHYSICS OF COMPLEX AND SUPERMOLECULAR FLUIDS

  • English

English

A collection of papers from the International Symposium on Complex and Supermolecular Fluids presents tutorials and minireviews focusing on the physical properties of complex fluids using the concepts and techniques of condensed matter physics. Stresses the unifying principles, rather than chemical details, behind the physics of diverse materials. Principal topics include colloids, microemulsions, ferrofluids, and micellar systems. Characterizes supermolecular and complex fluids by exploiting their analogies to atomic systems. Papers organized by physical phenomena and not by material.
