Curvature-guided motility of microalgae in geometric confinement [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 120, 068002 (2018), 2016
Microorganisms, such as bacteria and microalgae, often live in habitats consisting of a liquid phase and a plethora of interfaces. The precise ways in which these motile microbes behave in their confined environment remain unclear. Using experiments, Brownian dynamics simulations, and analytical theory, we study the motility of a single Chlamydomonas ...
