Entanglement, elasticity and viscous relaxation of actin solutions
B. Hinner, M. Tempel, E. Sackmann +2
We have investigated the viscosity and the plateau modulus of actin solutions with a magnetically driven rotating disc rheometer. For entangled solutions we observed a scaling of t…
Phase diagrams, critical and multicritical behavior of hard-core Bose-Hubbard models
C. Pich, E. Frey
We determine the zero-temperature phase diagram of the hard-core Bose-Hubbard model on a square lattice by mean-field theory supplemented by a linear spin-wave analysis. Due to the…
Elastically coupled molecular motors
Andrej Vilfan, Erwin Frey, Franz Schwabl
We study the influence of filament elasticity on the motion of collective molecular motors. It is found that for a backbone flexibility exceeding a characteristic value (motor stif…
Force-Velocity Relations of a Two-State Crossbridge Model for Molecular Motors
Andrej Vilfan, Erwin Frey, Franz Schwabl
We discuss the force-velocity relations obtained in a two-state crossbridge model for molecular motors. They can be calculated analytically in two limiting cases: for a large numbe…
Determination of the universality class of Gadolinium
E. Frey, F. Schwabl, S. Henneberger +4
We resolve a longstanding puzzle for the static and dynamic critical behavior of Gadolinium by a combined theoretical and experimental investigation. It is shown that the spin dyna…
Statistical Mechanics of Semiflexible Polymers: Theory and Experiment
Erwin Frey, Klaus Kroy, Jan Wilhelm +1
We review the physical properties of macromolecular networks, consisting of semiflexible polymers such as actin. We start by giving a theoretical analysis of the conformational sta…
