We investigate the structure and dynamics of charge-stabilized core-shell magnetic nanoparticles in suspensions. Small angle x-ray scattering and x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy allow us to analyze the intraparticle (core-shell) and interparticle structure of the suspension, as well as their dynamic and hydrodynamic behavior. Due to the weak magnetic interactions, the liquidlike structure is governed by screened Coulomb interactions. The hydrodynamic interactions of the measured systems are significantly stronger than predicted by current theories.
