Fluctuation-induced hydrodynamic coupling in an asymmetric, anisotropic dumbbell
Tunrayo Adeleke-Larodo, Pierre Illien, Ramin Golestanian
We recently introduced a model of an asymmetric dumbbell made of two hydrodynamically coupled subunits as a minimal model for a macromolecular complex, in order to explain the obse…
