Toroidal Droplets – Generation, Evolution in the Absence and in the Presence of Charge, Stabilization and Nematic Order

We will describe our experiments on the generation, hydrodynamic stability and stabilization of toroidal droplets ; we will discuss both neutral and charged toroidal droplets. We will then focus on nematics and discuss how the toroidal confinement affects the director organization inside these spaces, both for tangential and homeotropic anchoring.
