The unique length and time scales characteristic of aqueous                     suspensions of charged polymer spheres are exploited to study the               basic equilibrium and nonequilibrium properties of strongly                     interacting spherical particle systems.  Experiments will include               optical microscopy, light scattering intensity fluctuation                      spectroscopy, laser trapping of particles, and neutron                          scattering, techniques which have already been developed, as well               as novel applications of other methods including digital image                  processing and optical total internal reflection.  Nonequilibrium               studies will focus on shear induced structure changes in                        suspension samples which form liquid-like and solid-like                        structures in equilibrium.  Equilibrium studies will investigate                local order, dynamics and phase transitions in one, two and three               dimensions.  Theoretical studies including analog and molecular                 dynamic computer simulation will support and extend work on local               liquid structure, laser trapping and nonequilibrium behavior.
