Dual antagonistic role of motor proteins in fluidizing active networks
Bibi Najma, Minu Varghese, Lev Tsidilkovski +3
Cells accomplish diverse functions using the same molecular building blocks, from setting up cytoplasmic flows to generating mechanical forces. In particular, transitions between t…
Steady states of active Brownian particles interacting with boundaries
Caleb G. Wagner, Michael F. Hagan, Aparna Baskaran
An active Brownian particle is a minimal model for a self-propelled colloid in a dissipative environment. Experiments and simulations show that, in the presence of boundaries and o…
Vesicle shape transformations driven by confined active filaments
Matthew S. E. Peterson, Aparna Baskaran, Michael F. Hagan
In active matter systems, deformable boundaries provide a mechanism to organize internal active stresses and perform work on the external environment. To study a minimal model of s…
