Widespread concerns over the impact of human activity on the environment have resulted in
a desire to replace artificial functional materials with naturally derived alternatives. As such …

The simplicity of hard spheres as a model system is deceptive. Although the particles
interact solely through volume exclusion, that nevertheless suffices for a wealth of static and …

Food Emulsions: Principles, Practice, and Techniques, Second Edition introduces the
fundamentals of emulsion science and demonstrates how this knowledge can be applied to …

Lucent Technologies tum event had been predicted more than 60 years ago (Goeppert-
Mayer, 1931), but experimental confirmation Murray Hill, New Jersey 07974 was delayed …

Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a well known experimental approach uniquely suited for
the characterization of small particles undergoing Brownian motion in randomly …

Providing a vital link between chemistry and physics on the nanoscale, this book offers
concise coverage of the entire topic in five major sections, beginning with synthesis of …

We present a new use of dynamic light scattering that permits the determination of the
viscoelastic behavior of a complex fluid. By describing the motion of a scattering particle in a …

Microrheology encompasses a range of methods to measure the mechanical properties of
soft materials. By characterizing the motion of embedded microscopic particles …

Diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS) is a group of techniques used to measure the dynamics
of a scattering medium in a non-invasive manner. DWS methods rely on detecting the …

We present a data analysis procedure that provides the solution to a long-standing issue in
microrheology studies, ie the evaluation of the fluids' linear viscoelastic properties from the …
