Effect of interaction shape on the condensed DNA toroid
Yukitaka Ishimoto, Norio Kikuchi
We investigate how different microscopic interactions between semiflexible chain segments can qualitatively alter the physical properties of the condensed toroid. We propose a gene…
Particle-Based Mesoscale Hydrodynamic Techniques
Hiroshi Noguchi, Norio Kikuchi, Gerhard Gompper
Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) and multi-particle collision (MPC) dynamics are powerful tools to study mesoscale hydrodynamic phenomena accompanied by thermal fluctuations. To…
Mobile particles in an immobile environment: Molecular Dynamics simulation of a binary Yukawa mixture
Norio Kikuchi, Juergen Horbach
Molecular dynamics computer simulations are used to investigate thedynamics of a binary mixture of charged (Yukawa) particles with a size-ratio of 1:5. We find that the system unde…
Low energy states of a semiflexible polymer chain with attraction and the whip-toroid transitions
Yukitaka Ishimoto, Norio Kikuchi
Based on our previous paper [cond-mat/0507477], we establish a general model for the whip-toroid transitions of a semiflexible homopolymer chain using the path integral method and…
