On September 11-15, 2023, Professor David Heyes – an expert in the field of soft matter, computer simulation methods and theory of liquids, currently associated with Imperial College London and Royal Holloway University of London, paid a short visit to our Institute. Professor Heyes has been cooperating with employees from the Department of Physics of Liquid Crystals and Dielectric Systems and the Department of Auxetics, Functional Materials and Computer Simulations for many years. The purpose of the current visit was to jointly investigate the influence of liquid isomorphism and transport coefficients. During the visit, our scientists took the opportunity to meet, discuss and exchange scientific experiences with the guest.
