Faceted particles formed by the frustrated packing of anisotropic colloids on curved surfaces
Naiyin Yu, Abhijit Ghosh, Michael F. Hagan
We use computer simulations and simple theoretical models to analyze the morphologies that result when rod-like particles end-attach onto a curved surface, creating a finite-thickn…
Elasticity of Stiff Biopolymers
Abhijit Ghosh, Joseph Samuel, Supurna Sinha
We present a statistical mechanical study of stiff polymers, motivated by experiments on actin filaments and the considerable current interest in polymer networks. We obtain simple…
DNA Elasticity : Topology of Self-Avoidance
Joseph Samuel, Supurna Sinha, Abhijit Ghosh
We present a theoretical treatment of DNA stretching and twisting experiments, in which we discuss global topological subtleties of self avoiding ribbons and provide an underlying…
