Translational and rotational Brownian displacements of colloidal particles of complex shapes

Cichocki B., Ekiel-Jeżewska M. L., Wajnryb E.

257--267

The exact analytical expressions for the time-dependent cross-correlations of the translational and rotational Brownian displacements of a particle with arbitrary shape were derived by us in [3, 4]. They are in this work applied to construct a method to analyze the Brownian motion of a particle of an arbitrary shape, and to extract accurately the self-diffusion matrix from the measurements of the crosscorrelations, which in turn allows to gain some information on the particle structure. As an example, we apply our new method to analyze the experimental results of D. J. Kraft et al. for the micrometer-sized aggregates of the beads [8]. We explicitly demonstrate that our procedure, based on the measurements of the time-dependent cross-correlations in the whole range of times, allows to determine the self-diffusion (or alternatively the friction matrix) with a much higher precision than the method based only on their initial slopes. Therefore, the analytical time-dependence of the cross-correlations serves as a useful tool to extract information about particle structure from trajectory measurements.

Statistical description of a non-Brownian suspension

Cichocki B., Sadlej K.

Archives of Mechanics

2006

Vol. 58, nr 4-5

327-337

A suspension of non-Brownian particles in a constant, external force field is studied. Statistical description of the system, based on reduced distribution functions is found. A hierarchy of equations for the correlation functions, analogous to the BBGKY hierarchy known from the kinetic theory of gases, is derived and thoroughly analysed. As an example, the problem of deriving the two-particle correlation function for a sedimenting system is considered.
