Theoretical framework for two-microswimmer hydrodynamic interactions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Hydrodynamic interactions are crucial for determining the cooperative behavior of microswimmers at low Reynolds numbers. Here we provide a comprehensive analysis of the scaling laws and the strength of the interactions in the case of a pair of three ...

Stochastic Stirling Engine Operating in Contact with Active Baths

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
A Stirling engine made of a colloidal particle in contact with a nonequilibrium bath is considered and analyzed with the tools of stochastic energetics. We model the bath by non Gaussian persistent noise acting on the colloidal particle. Depending on the

High-energy neutrino conversion and the lepton asymmetry in the universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We study matter effects on oscillations of high-energy neutrinos in the Universe. Substantial effect can be produced by scattering of the neutrinos from cosmological sources ($z\gta 1$) on the relic neutrino background, provided that the latter has large

Spheroid mechanics and implications for cell invasion

open access: yesAdvances in Physics: X, 2021
Spheroids are widely used in vitro 3D multicellular model systems that mimic complex physiological microenvironments of tissues. As different cell types vary in deformability and adhesion, the choice of (heterogeneous) cell composition will define ...

Active Microrheology in Active Matter Systems: Mobility, Intermittency and Avalanches

open access: yes, 2015
We examine the mobility and velocity fluctuations of a driven particle moving through an active matter bath of self-mobile disks for varied density or area coverage and varied activity.

Macroscopic, artificial active matter

open access: yesNational Science Open
Artificial active matters on a macroscopic scale, including vibrating particles, robots, and camphor boats, have attracted increasing attentions due to their uniform properties, rich and easily controllable parameters, convenient observation, and the ...

RNA polymerase II clusters form in line with surface condensation on regulatory chromatin

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2021
It is essential for cells to control which genes are transcribed into RNA. In eukaryotes, two major control points are recruitment of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) into a paused state, and subsequent pause release toward transcription.

Anisotropic swim stress in active matter with nematic order [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Active Brownian Particles (ABPs) transmit a swim pressure $\Pi^{swim}=n\zeta D^{swim}$ to the container boundaries, where $\zeta$ is the drag coefficient, $D^{swim}$ is the swim diffusivity and $n$ is the uniform bulk number density far from the ...

Irreversibility, heat and information flows induced by non-reciprocal interactions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2020
We study the thermodynamic properties induced by non-reciprocal interactions between stochastic degrees of freedom in time- and space-continuous systems. We show that, under fairly general conditions, non-reciprocal coupling alone implies a steady energy
