Multi-plectoneme phase of double-stranded DNA under torsion
Marc Emanuel, Giovanni Lanzani, Helmut Schiessel
We use the worm-like chain model to study supercoiling of DNA under tension and torque. The model reproduces experimental data for a broad range of forces, salt concentrations and…

On the confinement of semiflexible chains under torsion
Marc Emanuel
The effect of a finite torque on semiflexible polymers in a confined environment is investigated. It is shown how a new lengthscale appears in the strongly confined limit. The infl…

Semi-classical buckling of stiff polymers
Marc Emanuel, Hervé Mohrbach, Mehmet Sayar +2
A quantitative theory of the buckling of a worm like chain based on a semi-classical approximation of the partition function is presented. The contribution of thermal fluctuations…
