Description
One of the few textbooks in the field, this volume deals with several aspects of the dynamics of colloids. A self-contained treatise, it fills the gap between research literature and existing books for graduate students and researchers. For readers with a background in chemistry, the first chapter contains a section on frequently used mathematical techniques, as well as statistical mechanics.
Some of the topics covered include:
- diffusion of free particles on the basis of the Langevin equation
-the separation of time, length and angular scales;
- the fundamental Fokker-Planck and Smoluchowski equations derived for interacting particles
- friction of spheres and rods, and hydrodynamic interaction of spheres (including three body interactions)
- diffusion, sedimentation, critical phenomena and phase separation kinetics
- experimental light scattering results.
For universities and research departments in industry this textbook makes vital reading.
