Cooperative rheological state-switching of enzymatically-driven composites of circular DNA and dextran
Juexin Marfai, Ryan J. McGorty, Rae M. Robertson-Anderson
Polymer topology, which plays a principal role in the rheology of polymeric fluids, and non-equilibrium materials, which exhibit time-varying rheological properties, are topics of…
Design and Build of a Customizable Light Sheet for Visualization of Cytoskeleton Networks
Nathan Felcher, Daisy Achiriloaie, Brian Lee +2
Reconstituted cytoskeleton composites have emerged as a valuable model system for studying non equilibrium soft matter. Faithful capture of the dynamics of these three dimensional,…
Motor-driven advection competes with crowding to drive spatiotemporally heterogeneous transport in cytoskeleton composites
Janet Y Sheung, Jonathan Garamella, Stella K Kahl +3
The cytoskeleton -- a composite network of biopolymers, molecular motors, and associated binding proteins -- is a paradigmatic example of active matter. Particle transport through…
OpTiDDM (Optical Tweezers integrating Differential Dynamic Microscopy) maps the spatiotemporal propagation of nonlinear stresses in polymer blends and composites
Karthik R. Peddireddy, Ryan Clairmont, Philip Neill +2
How local stresses propagate through polymeric fluids, and, more generally, how macromolecular dynamics give rise to viscoelasticity are open questions vital to wide-ranging scient…
Monge-Ampère functionals for the curvature tensor of a holomorphic vector bundle
Jean-Pierre Demailly
Let be a holomorphic vector bundle on a projective manifold such that is ample. We introduce three functionals related to Griffiths, Nakano and dual Nakano p…
Motor antagonism dictates emergent dynamics in active double networks tuned by crosslinkers
Ryan J. McGorty, Christopher J. Currie, Jonathan Michel +8
The cytoskeleton relies on diverse populations of motors, filaments, and binding proteins acting in concert to enable non-equilibrium processes ranging from mitosis to chemotaxis.…
Core-shell droplets and microcapsules formed through liquid-liquid phase separation of a colloid-polymer mixture
Steven Dang, John Brady, Ryle Rel +3
Microcapsules allow for the controlled containment, transport, and release of cargoes ranging from pharmaceuticals to fragrances. Given the interest from a variety of industries in…
Active Cytoskeletal Composites Display Emergent Tunable Contractility and Restructuring
Gloria Lee, Gregor Leech, Pancy Lwin +7
The cytoskeleton is a model active matter system that controls diverse cellular processes from division to motility. While both active actomyosin dynamics and actin-microtubule int…
Two-color differential dynamic microscopy for capturing fast dynamics
Ruilin You, Ryan McGorty
Differential dynamic microscopy (DDM) is increasingly used in the fields of soft matter physics and biophysics to extract the dynamics of microscopic objects across a range of wave…
Topology-dependent anomalous dynamics of ring and linear DNA are sensitive to cytoskeleton crosslinking
Devynn M. Wulstein, Kathryn E. Regan, Jonathan Garamella +2
Cytoskeletal crowding plays a key role in the diffusion of DNA molecules through the cell, acting as a barrier to effective intracellular transport and conformational stability req…
Holographic Microscopy with Python and HoloPy
Solomon Barkley, Thomas G. Dimiduk, Jerome Fung +5
A holographic microscope captures interference patterns, or holograms, that encode three-dimensional (3D) information about the object being viewed. Computation is essential to ext…
Point-spread function engineering enhances digital Fourier microscopy
Devynn M. Wulstein, Ryan McGorty
While numerous optical methods exist to probe the dynamics of biological or complex fluid samples, in recent years digital Fourier microscopy techniques, like differential dynamic…
Contact-line pinning controls how quickly colloidal particles equilibrate with liquid interfaces
Anna Wang, Ryan McGorty, David M. Kaz +1
Previous experiments have shown that spherical colloidal particles relax to equilibrium slowly after they adsorb to a liquid-liquid interface, despite the large interfacial energy…
Noninvasive measurements of gas exchange in a three-dimensional fluidized bed using hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR
Tina Pavlin, Ruopeng Wang, Ryan McGorty +5
We present a novel NMR technique that provides a non-invasive, direct measurement of gas exchange in a three-dimensional gas-fluidized bed of solid particles. The NMR spectrum of h…
