Parity-time symmetry breaking enables swarming motility in Caenorhabditis elegans
Mustafa Basaran, Tevfik Can Yüce, Ali Keçebaş +6
Nonreciprocal interactions break action-reaction symmetry in systems of interacting bodies. This process inevitably introduces non-Hermitian dynamics which with its hallmark signat…
Bacterial biofilms use chiral branches to escape crowded environments by tracking oxygen gradient
Mustafa Basaran, Tevfik Can Yüce, Yusuf Ilker Yaman +2
Bacterial biofilms collectively develop distinct and ordered structures, including fibers, bundles, and branches. Often, it is unclear how these structural motifs convey specific a…
Large-scale orientational order in bacterial colonies during inward growth
Mustafa Başaran, Y. Ilker Yaman, Tevfik Can Yuce +2
During colony growth, complex interactions regulate the bacterial orientation, leading to the formation of large-scale ordered structures, including topological defects and microdo…
Dynamics of pattern formation and emergence of swarming in C. elegans
Esin Demir, Y. Ilker Yaman, Askin Kocabas
Many animals in their natural habitat exhibit collective motion and form complex patterns to tackle environmental difficulties. Several physical and biological factors, such as ani…
Emergence of active nematics in bacterial biofilms
Yusuf Ilker Yaman, Esin Demir, Roman Vetter +1
Growing tissue and bacterial colonies are active matter systems where cell divisions and cellular motion generate active stress. Although they operate in the non-equilibrium regime…
