PACS 68.03.Kn – Fluid interfaces (2008)

W. Van Saarloos

Abstract.- We report on the residence times of capillary waves above a given height h and on the typical waiting time in between such fluctuations. The measurements were made on phase separated...

Dynamical Stripe Correlations in Cuprate Superconductors. (2008)

J. Zaanen, O. Y. Osman, H. Eskes, W. Van Saarloos

Based on the recent observation of the stripe instability in Cuprate super-conductors ~ we present the hypothesis that the normal state finds its origin in a particular kind of stripe-quantum fluid....

Wave propagation in force chains (2008)

E. Somfai, W. Van Saarloos

ABSTRACT: We present numerical simulations of acoustic wave propagation in disordered granular media. Small amplitude oscillations of compressed static configurations of frictionless spherical grains...

Statistics of fluctuating colloidal fluid-fluid interfaces (2008)

Saarloos, W. Van, Lekkerkerker, H.N.W.

Fluctuations of the interface between coexisting colloidal fluid phases have been measured with confocal microscopy. Due to a very low surface tension, the thermal motions of the interface are so...

Residence and waiting times of Brownian interface fluctuations (2008)

Saarloos, W. Van, Lekkerkerker, H.N.W.

We report on the residence times of capillary waves above a given height h and on the typical waiting time in between such fluctuations. The measurements were made on phase-separated colloid-polymer...

Regular Article THE EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL E (2008)

E. Woldhuis A, B. P. Tighe, W. Van Saarloos

Abstract. The spot model has been developed by Bazant and co-workers to describe quasistatic granular flows. It assumes that granular flow is caused by the opposing flow of so-called spots of excess...

Amplitude Equations for Pattern Forming Systems (2007)

Van Hecke Lorentz, M. Van Hecke, P. C. Hohenberg, W. Van Saarloos

In this paper, based on the lectures by PCH and WvS at this summer school, we give an introduction to amplitude equations which describe slow modulations in space and time of patterns occuring in...

Temperature dependence of the x-ray photoemission line shape and of the hopping rate in a marginal Fermi liquid (1992)

W Van Saarloos

AbslraeL We study the spectral properties of a localized particle (a deep core level, or a heavy particle hopping in a solid), coupled to conduction electrons that are described by a marginal Fermi...

Layer Formation of Dilute Colloidal Suspensions as a Result of a Concentration-Dependent Sedimentation Velocity: Some Simple Considerations and Suggestions for Further Experiments. (1989)

W. Van Saarloos, D. A. Huse

Abstract.- In a number of experiments on sedimentation in colloidal suspensions, the formation of a vertically layered structure in the concentration profile has been observed. We argue that this may...

Domain-growth kinetics of systems with soft walls (1988)

Grant, M., Saarloos, W. Van

It has recently been suggested by Mouritsen on the basis of computer simulations that systems with soft domain walls exhibit slower domain growth than the R_t1/2 growth law predicted by Lifshitz and...

Indications of microscopic solvability from counting arguments (1988)

Grant, M., Saarloos, W. Van, Weeks, J. D.

Recent analytical results for the shape of viscous fingers in a Hele-Shaw cell have established that the steady-state equations with nonzero surface tension are overdetermined and hence do not admit...

MANY-SPHERE HYDRODYNAMIC INTERACTIONS III. THE INFLUENCE OF A PLANE WALL (1984)

W. Van Saarloos, P. Mazur

A previously developed scheme-to evaluate the (translational and rotational) mobility tensors for an arbitrary number of spheres in an unbounded fluid- is extended to include the presence of a plane...

MANY-SPHERE HYDRODYNAMIC INTERACTIONS 1I. MOBILITIES AT FINITE FREQUENCIES (1983)

W. Van Saarloos, P. Mazur

We extend our previously developed scheme to evaluate the static mobility tensors of an arbitrary number of spheres in a viscous fluid, to the case of finite frequencies. 1.

Many-sphere hydrodynamic interactions and mobilities in a suspension (1982)

P. Mazur, W. Van Saarloos

A general scheme is presented to evaluate the mobility tensors of an arbitrary number of spheres, immersed in a viscous fluid, in a power series expansion in R-~, where R is a typical distance...

NON-LINEAR HYDRODYNAMIC FLUCTUATIONS AROUND EQUILIBRIUM (1981)

W. Van Saarloos, D. Bedeaux, P. Mazur

We formulate a scheme describing the fluctuations in a system obeying the non-linear hydrodynamic equations. The random fluxes are assumed to be Gaussian processes with white noise. It is shown that...
