      abstract     = {The isotropic-nematic spinodals of solutions of rigid
                      spherocylindrical colloids with various shape anisotropies
                      L/D in a wide range from 10 to 60 are investigated by means
                      of Brownian dynamics simulations. To make these simulations
                      feasible, we developed a new event-driven algorithm that
                      takes the excluded volume interactions between particles
                      into account as instantaneous collisions, but neglects the
                      hydrodynamic interactions. This algorithm is applied to
                      dense systems of highly elongated rods and proves to be
                      efficient. The calculated isotropic-nematic spinodals lie
                      between the previously established binodals in the phase
                      diagram and extrapolate for infinitely long rods to
                      Onsager's [Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sci. 51, 627 (1949)] theoretical
                      predictions. Moreover, we investigate the shear induced
                      shifts of the spinodals, qualitatively confirming the
                      theoretical prediction of the critical shear rate at which
                      the two spinodals merge and the isotropic-nematic phase
                      transition ceases to exist.},
