Topic outline

  • General

    Welcome to the Soft Condensed Matter Physics course! You will learn about soft matter in general with many examples from everyday life, technology, and nature, and get a comprehensive understanding of the physics of colloids, polymers, liquids droplets, surfactants, and wetting. The course will compose of in-class lectures and exercise sessions, group work and presentations, as well as guest presentations by researchers in the field. The course will end with a written exam. 

    Robin Ras and Matilda Backholm are the main teachers of this course. The first lecture is on the 9th of January 2023.

    We will use the book "Soft condensed matter" by R. A. L. Jones.
