Welcome to Soft Matter Physics
Welcome to softmatterphysics.org, a resource dedicated to exploring the fascinating field of soft matter physics.
What is Soft Matter Physics?
Soft matter physics is the study of materials that are easily deformed by thermal fluctuations and external forces. Unlike hard materials like metals or crystals, soft matter systems include:
- Active Matter
- Colloids
- Granular Matter
- Liquid Crystals
- Polymers
- Biological Matter
- Gels and Networks
- Micelles
- Self-Assembly
These systems bridge the gap between the microscopic world of atoms and molecules and the macroscopic world we experience every day. They exhibit complex behaviors that emerge from simple interactions, making them endlessly fascinating to study.
