Colloidal suspensions provide the possibility to study a variety of classical many particle systems like glasses, gels, crystals or liquids on a microscopic scale by means of single particle resolution. Hence, macroscopically significant thermal and mechanical properties can be reasoned by the explicit structure and dynamics of the particles. By colloidal experiments and Monte Carlo simulations, we study the equilibrium melting scenario of two-dimensional systems with a repulsive dipole-dipole potential. Our results are largely in agreement with theoretical predictions of the continuous KTHNY melting scenario, but also indicate new prospects which are beyond the microscopic defect theory.
