Physical mechanism reveals bacterial slowdown above a critical number of flagella
Maria Tătulea-Codrean, Eric Lauga
Numerous studies have explored the link between bacterial swimming and the number of flagella, a distinguishing feature of motile multiflagellated bacteria. We revisit this open qu…

Geometrical constraints on the tangling of bacterial flagellar filaments
Maria Tătulea-Codrean, Eric Lauga
Many species of bacteria swim through viscous environments by rotating multiple helical flagella. The filaments gather behind the cell body and form a close helical bundle, which p…
