Abstract

We report extensive light-scattering measurements (elastic, quasielastic, and Brillouin) performed in dense micellar or microemulsion systems. The overall analysis of the data, in terms of a static effective-medium approach, indicates that the observed dynamic and structural effects are related to a dynamic percolation regime.
