The jamming transition is studied numerically in systems of particles with attraction. Unlike the purely repulsive case where a single transition separates the jammed from unjammed phase, the presence of even an infinitesimal amount of attraction yields two distinct transitions: connectivity and rigidity percolation. We measure critical exponents of these two percolation transitions and find that they are different than the corresponding lattice values. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
