Recoil experiments determine the eigenmodes of viscoelastic fluids

We experimentally investigate the transient recoil dynamics of a colloidal probe particle in a viscoelastic fluid after the driving force acting on the probe is suddenly removed. The corresponding recoil displays two distinct timescales which are in excellent agreement with a microscopic model which...
