Rotational Diffusion in a Chain of Particles

Holger Stark, Michael Reichert, Jerome Bibette

We study the coupled rotational diffusion in a two-particle chain on the basis of a Smoluchowski equation and calculate time-correlation functions that are measurable in an experim…

Surmounting Barriers: The Benefit of Hydrodynamic Interactions

Christoph Lutz, Michael Reichert, Holger Stark +1

We experimentally and theoretically investigate the collective behavior of three colloidal particles that are driven by a constant force along a toroidal trap. Due to hydrodynamic…

Synchronization of rotating helices by hydrodynamic interactions

M. Reichert, H. Stark

Some types of bacteria use rotating helical flagella to swim. The motion of such organisms takes place in the regime of low Reynolds numbers where viscous effects dominate and wher…

Circling particles and drafting in optical vortices

Michael Reichert, Holger Stark

Particles suspended in a viscous fluid circle in optical vortices generated by holographic optical-tweezer techniques [Curtis J E and Grier D G 2003 Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 133901]. We…

Hydrodynamic coupling of two rotating spheres trapped in harmonic potentials

Michael Reichert, Holger Stark

We theoretically study in detail the hydrodynamic coupling of two equal-sized colloidal spheres at low Reynolds numbers assuming the particles to be harmonically trapped with respe…

Finite-Temperature Order-Disorder Phase Transition in a Cluster Model of Decagonal Tilings

Michael Reichert, Franz Gähler

In a recent paper ["Cluster Model of Decagonal Tilings" (to be published in Phys. Rev. B)], we have introduced a cluster model for decagonal tilings in two dimensions. This model i…
