Abstract
The short-time self-mobilities of spherical colloidal particles in concentrated liquid suspensions were measured by photon correlation spectroscopy. For volume fractions Φ ≳ 0.3, theory incorporating two-particle hydrodynamic interactions was not adequate to describe the data, indicating the importance of many-particle contributions.
Résumé
Nous avons mesuré par spectroscopie de corrélation de photons la self-mobilité aux temps courts de particules colloïdales sphériques dans des suspensions liquides concentrées. Pour des fractions en volume Φ ≳ 0,3, la théorie incluant les interactions hydrodynamiques à deux corps ne permet pas de décrire nos résultats, ce qui indique l'importance des interactions multiples.
