Self-Sustained Density Oscillations of Swimming Bacteria Confined in Microchambers
M. Paoluzzi, R. Di Leonardo, L. Angelani
We numerically study the dynamics of run-and-tumble particles confined in two chambers connected by thin channels. Two dominant dynamical behaviors emerge: (i) an oscillatory pumpi…
Generalized energy equipartition in harmonic oscillators driven by active baths
Claudio Maggi, Matteo Paoluzzi, Nicola Pellicciotta +3
We study experimentally and numerically the dynamics of colloidal beads confined by a harmonic potential in a bath of swimming E. coli bacteria. The resulting dynamics is well appr…
Run-and-tumble particles in speckle fields
M. Paoluzzi, R. Di Leonardo, L. Angelani
The random energy landscapes developed by speckle fields can be used to confine and manipulate a large number of micro-particles with a single laser beam. By means of molecular dyn…
