Annihilation of point defect pairs in freely suspended liquid-crystal films
We study the annihilation of topological defect pairs in the quasi-two-dimensional geometry of freely suspended smectic films.This elementary process is at the basis of all models describing the statistics of Samsung BRB260130WW 178cm Integrated 70/30 Frost Free Fridge Freezer complex defect patterns.We prepare pairs with opposite topological charg
