Soft condensed matter

Abstract:
These lectures illustrate some of the concepts of soft-condensed matter physics, taking examples from colloid physics. Many of the theoretical concepts will be illustrated with the results of computer simulations. After a brief introduction describing interactions between colloids, the paper focuses on colloidal phase behavior (in particular, entropic phase transitions), colloidal hydrodynamics and colloidal nucleation.
