Finite-size corrections for confined polymers in the extended de Gennes regime
T. St Clere Smithe, V. Iarko, A. Muralidhar +3
Theoretical results for the extension of a polymer confined to a channel are usually derived in the limit of infinite contour length. But experimental studies and simulations of DN…
Settling of an asymmetric dumbbell in a quiescent fluid
F. Candelier, B. Mehlig
We compute the hydrodynamic torque on a dumbbell (two spheres linked by a massless rigid rod) settling in a quiescent fluid at small but finite Reynolds number. The spheres have th…
Numerical analysis of the angular motion of a neutrally buoyant spheroid in shear flow at small Reynolds numbers
T. Rosen, J. Einarsson, A. Nordmark +3
We numerically analyse the rotation of a neutrally buoyant spheroid in a shear flow at small shear Reynolds number. Using direct numerical stability analysis of the coupled nonline…
Measurement of particle motion in optical tweezers embedded in a Sagnac interferometer
Ivan Galinskiy, Oscar Isaksson, Israel Rebolledo Salgado +3
We have constructed a counterpropagating optical tweezers setup embedded in a Sagnac interferometer in order to increase the sensitivity of position tracking for particles in the g…
Extension of nano-confined DNA: quantitative comparison between experiment and theory
V. Iarko, E. Werner, L. K. Nyberg +8
The extension of DNA confined to nanochannels has been studied intensively and in detail. Yet quantitative comparisons between experiments and model calculations are difficult beca…
The role of inertia for the rotation of a nearly spherical particle in a general linear flow
F. Candelier, J. Einarsson, F. Lundell +2
We analyse the angular dynamics of a neutrally buoyant nearly spherical particle immersed in a steady general linear flow. The hydrodynamic torque acting on the particle is obtaine…
