A Cocktail of Soft Condensed Matter
2000Soft condensed matter physics has evolved within the last two decades into a thriving field of inquiry. Arguably, it is unique amongst all other fields in physics in the diversity of the topics it encompasses. You just have to have a look at the subjects to be covered in this School to convince yourself.

What Is Soft Condensed Matter ?
2000A well identified community of physicists has established itself over the last thirty years, which was present in the 1999 Geilo Institute. Looking back at the themes of the 14 previous institutes, it is easy to recognize constant themes throughout the meetings as well as a drift away from the initial ones.

Passionate about soft condensed matter
Physics World, 1997When I was a lecturer at Sheffield University in the UK in 1992, the staff of our new Molecular Materials Centre heard that Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, who had just been awarded the 1991 Nobel Prize for Physics, was doing a roadshow of talks in schools around France.

Three-dimensional nonlinear microspectroscopy and imaging of soft condensed matter
Optics Letters, 2011We report on the realization of a sensitive microspectroscopy and imaging approach based on a three-color femtosecond coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) technique with high spectral, time, and spatial resolution. Independently tunable, high-repetition rate optical parametric oscillators were used to attain a dynamic range of 5 orders of ...

The Oxford Handbook of Soft Condensed Matter
2015Abstract This Handbook serves both as an introduction and an overview of the field of soft condensed matter. The discussion covers topics ranging from the fundamentals of colloid science to the principles and action of surfactants, modern directions of research in liquid crystals, and the key properties of foams.

Microrheology of soft condensed matter
2013Microrheology is the study of the flow of matter in the micron-time, length and volume scales. The high-frequency viscoelasticity of soft condensed matters such as surfactant and polymer solutions can be precisely investigated and consequently the fast relaxation mechanisms in tandem with an accurate estimation of the characteristic length scales can ...

Phase Transitions in Soft Condensed Matter
1989This volume comprises the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute held in Geilo, Norway, between 4 - 14 April 1989. This Institute was the tenth in a series held at Geilo on the subject of phase transitions. It was the first to be concerned with the growing area of soft condensed matter, which is neither ordinary solids nor ordinary liquids, but

Effective interactions in soft condensed matter physics
Physics Reports, 2001Abstract In this work, we present a review of recently achieved progress in the field of soft condensed matter physics, and in particular on the study of the static properties of solutions or suspensions of colloidal particles. The latter are macromolecular entities with typical sizes ranging from 1 nm to 1 μm and their suspension typically ...

FROM LDL TO SOFT CONDENSED MATTER
2009The application of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) will be shown in the research of complex macromolecular assemblies like low density lipoproteins [1, 2]. Advanced pulsed techniques currently in use in the Laboratory for magnetic resonances at the Rudjer Boskovic Insitute will be presented in the context of the research of complex ...
