ABOUT


Our work is in the general area of order-disorder phenomena in soft-condensed matter systems. Currently focused on the emergence of new states of matter and organization in far-from-equilibrium systems as well as thermophysical properties of structured nano-colloidal materials. Other interests include phase transitions and critical phenomena via experimental studies of liquid crystals, polymers, proteins, biomaterials, and complex composites.

High Resolution Real-time Calorimetry and Spatio-temporal Characterization of Rayleigh-Benard Convection at Steady State

These patterns show a spontaneous formation of order and develop in time as a function of thermal fluctuations. Standard deviation grows as the pattern emerges and then drops suddenly as the pattern evolves.

Why Can't you trust an Atom?

Because they make up everything.

Why are quantum physicists bad lovers?

Because when they find the position, they can’t find the momentum, and when they have the momentum, they can’t find the position.

What did the male magnet say to the female magnet?

From your backside, I thought you were repulsive. However, after seeing you from the front, I find you rather attractive.
