Cluster Crystals under Shear
Cluster Crystals under Shear is a scholarly work by Arash Nikoubashman, Gerhard Kahl, and Christos N Likos, published in 2011 in ''Physical Review Letters''. The main subjects of the publication include supercooling, physics, vortex, shear flow, Cluster, mechanics, materials science, glass transition, vorticity, condensed matter physics, shear, nucleation, colloid, shear rate, and classical mechanics. The authors show that a distinct class of colloidal crystals, which consist of mutually overlapping particles, has a novel and universal response to steady shear.
