Anomalous Relaxation in Colloidal Systems

by Avinash Kumar ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
The thesis presents a systematic study of the Mpemba effect in a colloidal system with a micron-sized particle diffusing in a water bath. While the Mpemba effect, where a system’s thermal relaxation time is a non-monotonic function of the initial temperature, has been observed in water since Aristotle’s era, the underlying mechanism of the effect is still unknown. Recent studies indicate that the ... Read more
