Arrested phase separation in chiral fluids of colloidal spinners

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

We investigate phase separation in a chiral fluid, made of spinning ferromagnetic colloids that interact both via hydrodynamic and dipolar forces and collectively organize into separated circulating clusters. We show that, at high spinning frequency, hydro ...
