Dynamics of branched polymers: motion, scattering and rheology (original) (raw)

I wish to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Daniel J. Read for his guidance, constant support and encouragement throughout my PhD. This thesis would not have been completed without his uncomplaining help and invaluable insights. It has been a pleasure to work with him. I would also like to thank him for giving me the opportunity to play football on Sundays which helped me to unwind research stress and maintain my weight in double digits! In addition, I would like to thank Prof. Peter D. Olmsted for fruitful discussions and for being my co-supervisor.
