Our aim
Jennifer Wenzl
How do shear zones arise?
Is restructuring of aggregates dominated by rolling or sliding?
How is the (rolling) friction affected by surface roughness?
How does a colloidal gel reorganize under shear?

Intensity anisotropy
+ Only intensity information
+ Cross position easy to detect
+ Both rotation angles f & Q
‒ Hard to bleach one single particle
‒ Bad intensity resolution
‒ Automized data analysis required
