Abstract: Short colloidal chains are simulated by the slithering-snake-algorithm on a simple cubic lattice. The dipole character of the colloidal particles leads to a long range dipole–dipole interaction. The solvent is simulated by the nearest neighbor Ising model. The aligning of the dipoles under a magnetic field gives rise to the chains to align on their part with the field direction.
