DNA loop statistics and torsional modulus
Vincent Rossetto
The modelling of DNA mechanics under external constraints is discussed. Two analytical models are widely known, but disagree for instance on the value of the torsional modulus. The…

Geometric depolarization in patterns formed by backscattered light
D. Lacoste, V. Rossetto, F. Jaillon +1
We formulate a framework for the depolarization of linearly polarized backscattered light based on the concept of geometric phase, {\it i.e} Berry's phase. The predictions of this…
