Sažetak
Liquids are fundamentally thought to be disordered systems (with few exceptions such as liquids crystals).We feel that aqueous mixtures belong to a very special type of disorder, caracterised by the micro-heterogeneity, and where fluctuations in the number of particles in a given volume play an important role. It is this problem that is not well described by finite size simulations, for the very simple reason that such system contains two scales of description, the original microscopic scale related to molecular size, and the newly emerged mesoscopic scale related to the segregated domains.
