Geometry-Controlled Motility of Microswimmers in elementary microfluidic confinements
Marvin Brun-Cosme-Bruny, Philippe Peyla, Salima Rafai
The motility of microswimmers in confined environments is a fundamental problem in active matter physics, with direct implications for microfluidic applications and the understandi…
Fish evacuate smoothly respecting a social bubble
R. Larrieu, P. Moreau, C. Graff +2
Crowd movements are observed among different species and on different scales, from insects to mammals, as well as in non-cognitive systems, such as motile cells. When forced to esc…
Deflection of phototactic microswimmers through obstacle arrays
Marvin Brun-Cosme-Bruny, Andre Förtsch, Walter Zimmermann +3
We study the effect of inhomogeneous environments on the swimming direction of the microalgae \textit{Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii} (CR) in the presence of a light stimulus. Positive…
Extreme congestion of microswimmers at a bottleneck constriction
Marvin Brun-Cosme-Bruny, Vincent Borne, Sylvain Faure +3
When attracted by a stimulus (e. g. light), microswimmers can build up very densely at a constriction and thus cause clogging. The micro-alga \textit{Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii} is…
Effective diffusivity of microswimmers in a crowded environment
Marvin Brun-Cosme-Bruny, Eric Bertin, Benoît Coasne +2
The microalga Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii (CR) is used here as a model system to study the effect of complex environments on the swimming of micro-organisms. Its motion can be modell…
Amoeboid swimming in a channel
Hao Wu, A. Farutin, W. -F. Hu +5
Several micro-organisms, such as bacteria, algae, or spermatozoa, use flagella or cilia to swim in a fluid, while many other micro-organisms instead use ample shape deformation, de…
