Broadband molecular dynamics simulation of fluid inertial effects in confined Brownian motion
Quentin Thomas, Clara Mefo Sop, Maxime Lavaud +3
Hydrodynamic memory governs Brownian motion over a broad range of timescales, from acoustic wave propagation at short times to diffusive relaxation at long times. While confinement…
Quantitative measurement of fluid inertial effects in confined Brownian motion
Quentin Ferreira, Pablo Palacios-Alonso, Harshit Joshi +3
The hydrodynamic response of Brownian particles in liquids is fundamentally altered by inertial forces arising from unsteady momentum transport in the surrounding fluid. These forc…
First-passage statistics of confined colloids
Guirec de Tournemire, Nicolas Fares, Yacine Amarouchene +1
The encounter of diffusing entities underlies a wide range of natural phenomena. The dynamics of these first-passage dynamics are strongly influenced by confining geometries. Confi…
Taylor dispersion in a soft channel
Aditya Jha, Masoodah Gunny, Joshua D Mcgraw +2
Diffusion of a solute along a channel is enhanced by hydrodynamic flow, a phenomenon known as Taylor dispersion. In microfluidic applications, the compliance of the channel boundar…
A label-free method to quantify early-stage amyloid aggregation via intrinsic phenylalanine fluorescence
Gaëlle Audéoud, Louis Moine, Laura Bonnecaze +5
The aggregation of amyloid-forming peptides is a dynamic, complex process that underlies their diverse biological activities, from physiological functions to disease-associated dys…
Inferring intraciliary dynamics from the gliding motility of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Nicolas Fares, Elorri Garcia, Ahmad Badr +5
The unicellular microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is widely recognized as a premier model living microswimmer for physicists and biophysicists. However, the interest around C. re…
