Abstract
The vibration spectra of a cylindrical sample of colloidal crystals are studied We indicate the proper choice of the aspect ratio α = R/H which optimizes the quality of resonances. A new experimental set-up allows us to compare the theory with the experimental results and to deduce a precise value of the elastic modulus and of the viscosity for several latex suspensionsKeywords
