A method for the enumeration of the floppy modes and the calculation of the associated entropy

Giuseppe Foffi

We present a method that is based on the Ladd-Frenkel (LF) thermodynamic integration for the study of the rigidity of networks of particles bonded together by short-ranged square well attractive potentials. We show that, by taking the limit of the attracti ...

New insight into cataract formation: Enhanced stability through mutual attraction

Giuseppe Foffi, Nicolas Dorsaz

Small-angle neutron scattering experiments and molecular dynamics simulations combined with an application of concepts from soft matter physics to complex protein mixtures provide new insight into the stability of eye lens protein mixtures. Exploring this ...

Scaling of dynamics with the range of interaction in short-range attractive colloids

Giuseppe Foffi

We numerically study the dependence of the dynamics on the range of interaction Δ for the short-range square well potential. We find that, for small Δ, dynamics scale exactly in the same way as thermodynamics, both for Newtonian and Brownian microscopic dy ...

Extended law of corresponding states in short-range square wells: A potential energy landscape study

Giuseppe Foffi

We study the statistical properties of the potential energy landscape of a system of particles interacting via a very short-range square-well potential (of depth - u0) as a function of the range of attraction Δ to provide thermodynamic insights of the Noro ...

On the possibility of extending the Noro-Frenkel generalized law of correspondent states to nonisotropic patchy interactions

Giuseppe Foffi

Colloidal systems (and protein solutions) are often characterized by attractive interactions whose ranges are much smaller than the particle size. When this is the case and the interaction is spherical, systems obey a generalized law of correspondent state ...
