Colloid Physics Experiments on the ISS

This talk will describe results of colloid physics experiments carried out on the International Space Station as well as support work performed with ground based experiments. By eliminating the effects of gravitational settling, studies of the behavior of very slowly evolving samples can be carried out. New results of colloid-polymer phase behavior observed with optical photography will be described. These will be supplemented by ground-based results obtained on systems that are as closely bouyancy-matched as feasible.
