Effect of simple shear on knotted polymer coils and globules
Andrey Milchev, Maurice P. Schmitt, Peter Virnau
We explore the effect of Couette flow on knotted linear polymer chains with extensive Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. Hydrodynamic interactions are accounted for by means of M…
Topological comparison of flexible and semiflexible chains in polymer melts with -chains
Maurice P. Schmitt, Sarah Wettermann, Kostas Ch. Daoulas +2
A central paradigm of polymer physics states that chains in melts behave like random walks as intra- and interchain interactions effectively cancel each other out. Likewise, -ch…
Skyrmion flow in periodically modulated channels
Klaus Raab, Maurice Schmitt, Maarten A. Brems +5
Magnetic skyrmions, topologically stabilized chiral magnetic textures with particle-like properties have so far primarily been studied statically. Here, we experimentally investiga…
