Field-mediated interactions of passive and conformation-active particles: multibody and retardation effects
Jean-Baptiste Fournier
Particles in soft matter often interact through the deformation field they create, as in the "cheerios" effect or the curvature-mediated interactions of membrane proteins. Using a…
Binding of thermalized and active membrane curvature-inducing proteins
Quentin Goutaland, Frédéric van Wijland, Jean-Baptiste Fournier +1
Membrane phase behavior induced by the binding of curvature-inducing proteins is studied by a combination of analytical and numerical approaches. In thermal equilibrium under the d…
Saffman-Delbrück and beyond: a pointlike approach
Quentin Goutaland, Jean-Baptiste Fournier
We show that a very good analytical approximation of Saffman-Delbrück's (SD) law (mobility of a bio-membrane inclusion) can be obtained easily from the velocity field produced by a…
Spatial Organization of Active Particles with Field Mediated Interactions
Ruben Zakine, Jean-Baptiste Fournier, Frédéric van Wijland
We consider a system of independent point-like particles performing a Brownian motion while interacting with a Gaussian fluctuating background. These particles are in addition endo…
Membrane-mediated interactions
Anne-Florence Bitbol, Doru Constantin, Jean-Baptiste Fournier
Interactions mediated by the cell membrane between inclusions, such as membrane proteins or antimicrobial peptides, play important roles in their biological activity. They also con…
Interaction and self-assembly of membrane-binding and membrane-excluding colloids embedded in lamellar phases
Ruben Zakine, Dasith de Silva Edirimuni, Doru Constantin +2
Within the framework of a discrete Gaussian model, we present analytical results for the interaction induced by a lamellar phase between small embedded colloids. We consider the tw…
