Casimir force in a water nanolayer confined by graphene sheets
Wijnand Broer, Jure Dobnikar
Casimir forces, arising from quantum and thermal fluctuations, depend strongly on the electromagnetic susceptibilities of the interacting materials. Here, we theoretically investig…
Monte-Carlo study of Compositional Heterogeneity in Multicomponent Cluster Crystals
Roshan Maharana, Daan Frenkel, Jure Dobnikar
Soft (sub)micron-sized particles with bounded interactions can form cluster crystals, periodic structures in which multiple particles occupy the same lattice site. While the thermo…
Beyond the Markovian limit: Exact solutions for active motion in a power-law viscoelastic bath
Mintu Karmakar, Jure Dobnikar, Ignacio Pagonabarraga
Active particles from bacteria to synthetic microswimmers often navigate viscoelastic media with complex relaxation dynamics. The classical active Brownian model that assumes insta…
Spool-nematic ordering of dsDNA and dsRNA under confinement
James Farrell, Jure Dobnikar, Rudolf Podgornik +1
The ability of double-stranded DNA or RNA to locally melt and form kinks leads to strong non-linear elasticity effects that qualitatively affect their packing in confined spaces. U…
Electrostatic interactions between charge regulated spherical macroions
Hu Ruixuan, Arghya Majee, Jure Dobnikar +1
We study the interaction between two charge regulating spherical macroions with dielectric interior and dissociable surface groups immersed in a monovalent electrolyte solution. Th…
Small Obstacle in a Large Polar Flock
Joan Codina, Benoît Mahault, Hugues Chaté +3
We show that arbitrarily large polar flocks are susceptible to the presence of a single small obstacle. In a wide region of parameter space, the obstacle triggers counter-propagati…
