Statistical physics and theoretical physics of condensed matter KU Leuven
My research focuses on the theoretical description of phase transitions and critical phenomena using the methods of statistical mechanics. In particular I study cooperative phenomena at surfaces and interfaces, notably wetting phase transitions. The systems under investigation include molecular fluids and complex fluids (e.g. liquid crystals and colloid-polymer mixtures), ultracold gases and Bose-Einstein condensates, superfluids and ...
