4. Technical Presentation

Michael Honke	Title : Ferrofluids, a Cool Colloidal Sludge, Understanding the Rosensweig Instability Abstract: Ferrofluids are colloidal suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles coated with a surfactant. Beyond applications in coil cooling, shaft seals, and in medicine, ferrofluids have an interesting visual effect due to the Rosensweig instability. I introduce this phenomena, review the physics behind it, and show possible methods for simulating it.
