In this project we intend to investigate the structural and magnetic properties of dense, strongly interacting ferrofluids by means of computer simulations and analytical calculations by employing statistical mechanical theory. In particular we will vary the density, dipolar coupling, short range interparticle potential, polydispersity, and externally applied field and monitor their influence on structural and magnetic properties. Of special interest will be the mechanisms leading to the ferromagnetic phase, and other possible morphological phase transitions. In particular we will confine the system to 2D in order to try to reproduce recent experimental findings of strongly interacting ferrofluids yielding an interesting network structure, which is a strong function of density. As far as time permits we will also investigate the dynamical (ac) susceptibility and try to determine the possible forms of particles associations (chains, globules, fractal clusters), the characteristic spectrum of their relaxation times and their influence on the macroscopic magnetic properties of ferrofluids.

在这个项目中，我们打算通过计算机模拟和统计力学理论的分析计算来研究致密、强相互作用的铁磁流体的结构和磁性。特别是，我们将改变密度、偶极耦合、短程粒子间势、多分散性和外部施加场，并监测它们对结构和磁性的影响。特别令人感兴趣的是导致铁磁相和其他可能的形态相变的机制。特别是，我们将系统限制为二维，以便尝试重现强相互作用铁磁流体的最新实验结果，产生有趣的网络结构，这是密度的强函数。只要时间允许，我们还将研究动态（ac）磁化率，并尝试确定颗粒组合（链、球、分形簇）的可能形式、它们的弛豫时间的特征谱以及它们对宏观磁性能的影响。铁磁流体。
