Active Brownian particles moving in a random Lorentz gas

Maria Zeitz, Holger Stark

Biological microswimmers often inhabit a porous or crowded environment such as soil. In order to understand how such a complex environment influences their spreading, we numericall…

Active Brownian particles and run-and-tumble particles separate inside a maze

Maryam Khatami, Katrin Wolff, Oliver Pohl +2

A diverse range of natural and artificial self-propelled particles are known and are used nowadays. Among them, active Brownian particles (ABPs) and run-and-tumble particles (RTPs)…

Self-induced polar order of active Brownian particles in a harmonic trap

Marc Hennes, Katrin Wolff, Holger Stark

Hydrodynamically interacting active particles in an external harmonic potential form a self-assembled fluid pump at large enough Péclet numbers. Here, we give a quantitative criter…

Modelling the effect of myosin X motors on filopodia growth

Katrin Wolff, Conrad Barrett-Freeman, Martin R. Evans +2

We present a numerical simulation study of the dynamics of filopodial growth in the presence of active transport by myosin X motors. We employ both a microscopic agent-based model,…

Sedimentation and polar order of active bottom-heavy particles

Katrin Wolff, Aljoscha M. Hahn, Holger Stark

Self-propelled particles in an external gravitational field have been shown to display both an increased sedimentation length and polar order even without particle interactions. He…

Stochastic reconstruction of protein structures from effective connectivity profiles

Katrin Wolff, Michele Vendruscolo, Markus Porto

We discuss a stochastic approach for reconstructing the native structures of proteins from the knowledge of the "effective connectivity", which is a one-dimensional structural prof…
