Active Transport of Cargo-Carrying and Interconnected Chiral Particles
Bhavesh Valecha, Hossein Vahid, Pietro Luigi Muzzeddu +2
Directed motion up a concentration gradient is crucial for the survival and maintenance of numerous biological systems, such as sperms moving towards an egg during fertilization or…
Adsorption of polyelectrolytes in the presence of varying dielectric discontinuity between solution and substrate
Hossein Vahid, Alberto Scacchi, Maria Sammalkorpi +1
We examine the interactions between polyelectrolytes (PEs) and uncharged substrates at conditions corresponding to a dielectric discontinuity between the aqueous solution and the s…
Non-monotonic electrophoretic mobility of rod-like polyelectrolytes by multivalent coions in added salt
Hossein Vahid, Alberto Scacchi, Maria Sammalkorpi +1
It is well established that when multivalent counterions or salts are added to a solution of highly-charged polyelectrolytes (PEs), correlation effects can cause charge inversion o…
Interactions between polyelectrolytes mediated by ordering and orientation of multivalent non-spherical ions in salt solutions
Hossein Vahid, Alberto Scacchi, Maria Sammalkorpi +1
Multivalent ions in solutions with polyelectrolytes (PE) induce electrostatic correlations that can drastically change ion distributions around the PEs and their mutual interaction…
Interaction between two polyelectrolytes in monovalent aqueous salt solutions
Xiang Yang, Alberto Scacchi, Hossein Vahid +2
We use the recently developed soft-potential-enhanced Poisson-Boltzmann (SPB) theory to study the interaction between two parallel polyelectrolytes (PEs) in monovalent ionic soluti…
Modified Poisson-Boltzmann theory for polyelectrolytes in monovalent salt solutions with finite-size ions
Hossein Vahid, Alberto Scacchi, Xiang Yang +2
We present a soft-potential-enhanced Poisson-Boltzmann (SPB) theory to efficiently capture ion distributions and electrostatic potential around rodlike charged macromolecules. The…
