✦ Synopsis

In Lhc system AOT--isooc taue-water. the nzverx micelIe radii, governed by the water conrent_ vary upon addition of small amoun& or compounds solubiLired in the tntcroemulsion These small vanatioos were measured by high-resolution small-angle X-ray wa~terir~g S~t-uctural changes are related to the solubilization sires by m-OF simple geometrical models. Solules situated at the interface decrease the waler core radius; solutes located in the water core increase thaw radius.
