Nonequilibrium Self-Organization of Lipids into Hierarchically Ordered and Compositionally Graded Cylindrical Smectics

When a dry mass of certain amphiphiles encounters water, a spectacular interfacial instability ensues: It gives rise to the formation of ensembles of fingerlike tubular protrusions called myelin figures─tens of micrometers wide and tens to hundreds of micrometers long─representing a novel class of n...
