Leaky Cell Model of Hard Spheres

Thomas G. Fai, Jamie M. Taylor, Epifanio G. Virga +2

We study packings of hard spheres on lattices. The partition function, and therefore the pressure, may be written solely in terms of the accessible free volume, i.e. the volume of…

Shear-induced polydomain structures of nematic lyotropic chromonic liquid crystal disodium cromoglycate

Hend Baza, Taras Turiv, Bing-Xiang Li +4

Lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) represent aqueous dispersions of organic disk-like molecules that form cylindrical aggregates. Despite the growing interest in these mat…

Control of microswimmers by spiral nematic vortices: transition from individual to collective motion and contraction, expansion, and stable circulation of bacterial swirls

Runa Koizumi, Taras Turiv, Mikhail M. Genkin +6

Active systems comprised of self-propelled units show fascinating transitions from Brownian-like dynamics to collective coherent motion. Swirling of swimming bacteria is a spectacu…

Annihilation trajectory of defects in smectic-C films

Xingzhou Tang, Jonathan V. Selinger

In a 2D liquid crystal, each topological defect has a topological charge and a characteristic orientation, and hence can be regarded as an oriented particle. Theories predict that…

Pitch tuning induced by optical torque in heliconical cholesteric liquid crystals

G. Nava, F. Ciciulla, O. S. Iadlovska +3

Heliconical cholesteric liquid crystals are expected to be more sensitive to torque induced by light field since their structure allows both bend and twist in molecular orientation…

Soliton-induced liquid crystal enabled electrophoresis

Bing-Xiang Li, Rui-Lin Xiao, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +1

Manipulation of particles by a uniform electric field, known as electrophoresis, is used in a wide array of applications. Of especial interest is electrophoresis driven by an alter…
