Theoretical study of vesicle shapes driven by coupling curved proteins and active cytoskeletal forces
Miha Fošnarič, Samo Penič, Aleš Iglič +3
Eukaryote cells have a flexible shape, which dynamically changes according to the function performed by the cell. One mechanism for deforming the cell membrane into the desired sha…

Signatures of motor susceptibility in the dynamics of a tracer particle in an active gel
Nitzan Razin, Raphael Voituriez, Nir S. Gov
We study a model for the motion of a tracer particle inside an active gel, exposing the properties of the van Hove distribution of the particle displacements. Active events of a ty…

Effective temperature of active fluids and sheared granular matter
Saroj Kumar Nandi, Nir S. Gov
The dynamics within active fluids, driven by internal activity of the self-propelled particles, is a subject of intense study in non-equilibrium physics. These systems have been ex…
