Toward a realistic model of multilayered bacterial colonies
M. T. Khan, J. Cammann, A. Sengupta +2
Bacteria are prolific at colonizing diverse surfaces under a widerange of environmental conditions, and exhibit fascinating examples of self-organization across scales. Though it h…
Active Spaghetti: Collective Organization in Cyanobacteria
Mixon K. Faluweki, Jan Cammann, Marco G. Mazza +1
Filamentous cyanobacteria can show fascinating examples of nonequilibrium self-organization, which however are not well-understood from a physical perspective. We investigate the m…
Smectic Layering: Landau theory for a complex-tensor order parameter
Jack Paget, Una Alberti, Marco G. Mazza +2
Composed of microscopic layers that stack along one direction while maintaining fluid-like positional disorder within layers, smectics are excellent systems for exploring topology,…
Complex-tensor theory of simple smectics
Jack Paget, Marco G. Mazza, Andew J. Archer +1
Smectic materials represent a unique state between fluids and solids, characterized by orientational and partial positional order, making them notoriously difficult to model, parti…
Motility and self-organization of gliding Chlamydomonas populations
Sebastian Till, Florian Ebmeier, Alexandros A. Fragkopoulos +2
Cellular appendages such as cilia and flagella represent universal tools enabling cells and microbes, among other essential functionalities, to propel themselves in diverse environ…
Emergent probability fluxes in confined microbial navigation
Jan Cammann, Fabian Jan Schwarzendahl, Tanya Ostapenko +3
When the motion of a motile cell is observed closely, it appears erratic, and yet the combination of nonequilibrium forces and surfaces can produce striking examples of organizatio…
