Precursors of long-range order and local disorder in colloids

We show the existence of precursors of crystalline and amorphous phases preceding the appearance of freezing and glass transitions in colloidal systems. The formation of crystalline clusters or amorphous local arrangements can be controlled by tuning the parameters of a proposed continuous potential and by changing the packing conditions.
