Macroscopic bioinspired magnetic active matter and the physical limits of magnetotaxis
Néstor Sepúlveda, Francisca Guzmán-Lastra, Miguel Carrasco +4
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are endowed with an exquisite orientation mechanism allowing them to swim along the geomagnetic field lines. This mechanism consists of a chain of bio-…
Unwrapping Chains

A loop of chain can move along its own tangents, maintaining a steady shape. An open-ended chain undergoing a nontrivial motion must change its shape. One consequence is that chain…
The weight of a falling chain, revisited
