Active particles in a tube: a generalized entropy potential approach

Yongfeng Zhao

We study the transport of self-propelled noninteracting active Brownian particles (ABPs) and run-and-tumble particles (RTPs) in long tubes of varying widths. Using a moment expansi…

Controlling cell motion and microscale flow with polarized light fields

Siyuan Yang, Mingji Huang, Yongfeng Zhao +1

We investigate how light polarization affects the motion of photo-responsive algae, \textit{Euglena gracilis}. In a uniformly polarized field, cells swim approximately perpendicula…
