Colloids in External Fields and in Micro-Channels     — Kerstin Franzrahe, Peter Henseler, and •Peter Nielaba — Physics Department, University of Konstanz, 78457 Konstanz

By Monte Carlo simulations we investigate the effect of an external periodic field on the structural properties and the phase diagram of a two-dimensional binary model colloid [1]. Interesting melting scenarios for the subsystems are analyzed. The layering formation in colloidal systems in micro-channels in external gravitational fields is explored by Brownian Dynamics simulations [2]. Interesting layer-reduction effects are found in the flow direction.
