Soft matter is studied with a large portfolio of methods. Light scattering and video microscopy
are the most employed at optical wavelengths. Light scattering provides ensemble-averaged …

Recently the investigation of non-stationary systems exhibiting spatial and dynamic
heterogeneities has propelled the development of innovative optical techniques providing …

We describe the use of a bright-field microscope for dynamic light scattering experiments on
weakly scattering samples. The method is based on collecting a time sequence of …

We use dynamic near field scattering to measure the dynamics of concentration non
equilibrium fluctuations at the steady-state of Soret separation. The analysis reveals that …

In the present study, dynamic light scattering (DLS) experiments and molecular dynamics
(MD) simulations were used for the investigation of the molecular diffusion in binary mixtures …

In this paper we extensively describe the heterodyne near field speckle method (HNFS) to
characterize both spatial and temporal coherence of synchrotron radiation (SR). The method …

We present a novel method to map the two-dimensional transverse coherence of an x-ray
beam using the dynamical near-field speckles formed by scattering from colloidal particles …

High-pressure mass diffusion and Soret coefficients of the equimassic 1, 2, 3, 4-
tetrahydronaphthalene and n-dodecane binary mixture are obtained from dynamic light …

We study the kinetics of an aggregation process induced by adding salt to a stable colloidal
suspension of 73 nm (diameter) particles. Despite the subdiffraction size of the colloidal …

Soft matter research often involves studying correlation functions such as the intermediate
scattering function. Wave scattering experiments or digital Fourier microscopy are usually …
