Abstract
Measurements of electric birefringence were made on surfactant solutions which are known to form anisotropic aggregates. Both amplitude and relaxation time constants of the dynamic Kerr effect were studied as functions of total surfactant concentration, electric field strength, temperature, and counterion concentration. Results indicate the existence of rod-like micelles whose lengths and number density increase with critical concentration. Results of the study of the anisotropy of the electric polarizability of the counterion atmosphere were compared with theory. 31 references.
