The Computational Physics Group develops and uses modern computer simulation techniques combined with analytical theory to study a broad range of condensed matter systems with an emphasis on the statistical mechanics of equilibrium and non-equilibrium processes. Research topics of current interest include soft matter, nanoparticles, phase transitions, chaotic dynamics, as well as hydrodynamics.
Prediction of cascade of isostructural critical points confirmed
Theoretical work by Tim Neuhaus and Christos Likos published in Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, and highlighted as Lab Talk there, has put forward the prediction of the existence of an infinity of critical points,...
Künstliche Proteine aus dem Labor
PhysikerInnen um Ivan Coluzza und Christoph Dellago von der Universität Wien haben gemeinsam mit der BOKU Nanomaschinen entwickelt, mit denen sich Funktionen von Proteinen nachbauen lassen. Die "bionischen Proteine"...
Work on microfluidics featured at the cover of Soft Matter
The flow of colloidal particles in structured microchannels is a topic bearing both fundamental interest and impact on many modern microfluidic applications. Recent work by Arash Nikoubashman and Gerhard Kahl (TU Wien) in...
