Dynamics and Interactions of Quincke Roller Clusters: from Orbits and Flips to Excited States

Abraham Mauleon-Amieva, Michael P. Allen, C. Patrick Royall

Active matter systems may be characterised by the conversion of energy into active motion, e.g. the self-propulsion of microorganisms. Artificial active colloids form models which…

Entropy production in an elementary, light driven micro-machine

Stuart J. Box, Michael P. Allen, David B. Phillips +1

We consider the basic, thermodynamic properties of an elementary micro-machine operating at colloidal length scales. In particular, we track and analyse the driven stochastic motio…

Molecular simulations of entangled defect structures around nanoparticles in nematic liquid crystals

Anja Humpert, Samuel F. Brown, Michael P. Allen

We investigate the defect structures forming around two nanoparticles in a Gay-Berne nematic liquid crystal using molecular simulations. For small separations, disclinations entang…

Folding kinetics of a polymer [corrigendum]

Bart Vorselaars, Štěpán Růžička, David Quigley +1

In our original article (Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2012, 14, 60446053) a convergence problem resulted in an averaging error in computing the entropy from a set of Wang-Landau Monte-…

Dynamics of ions in the selectivity filter of the KcsA channel: Towards a coupled Brownian particle description

Salvatore M. Cosseddu, Igor A. Khovanov, Michael P. Allen +3

The statistical and dynamical properties of ions in the selectivity filter of the KcsA ion channel are considered on the basis of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the KcsA pr…

Folding Kinetics of a Polymer

S. Ruzicka, D. Quigley, M. P. Allen

By simulating the first order globule-crystal transition of a flexible homopolymer chain, both by collision dynamics and Monte Carlo with non-kinetic moves, we show that the effect…
