Light controls motility and phase separation of photosynthetic microbes
Alexandros A. Fragkopoulos, Jérémy Vachier, Johannes Frey +4
Large ensembles of interacting, out-of-equilibrium agents are a paradigm of active matter. Their constituents' intrinsic activity may entail the spontaneous separation into localiz…
Elastic stresses reverse Ostwald ripening
Kathryn A. Rosowski, Estefania Vidal-Henriquez, David Zwicker +2
When liquid droplets nucleate and grow in a polymer network, compressive stresses can significantly increase their internal pressure, reaching values that far exceed the Laplace pr…
Theory of droplet ripening in stiffness gradients
Estefania Vidal-Henriquez, David Zwicker
Liquid-liquid phase separation is an important mechanism for compartmentalizing the cell's cytoplasm, allowing the dynamic organization of the components necessary for survival. Ho…
