Calculating the symmetry number of flexible sphere clusters
Emilio Zappa, Miranda Holmes-Cerfon
We present a theoretical and computational framework to compute the symmetry number of a flexible sphere cluster in , using a definition of symmetry that arises natur…
Modeling the relative dynamics of DNA-coated colloids
James P. Lee-Thorp, Miranda Holmes-Cerfon
We construct a theoretical model for the dynamics of a microscale colloidal particle, modeled as an interval, moving horizontally on a DNA-coated surface, modelled as a line coated…
Colloidomers: freely-jointed polymers made of droplets
Angus McMullen, Miranda Holmes-Cerfon, Francesco Sciortino +2
An important goal of self-assembly is to achieve a preprogrammed structure with high fidelity. Here, we control the valence of DNA-functionalized emulsions to make linear and branc…
Geometric frustration induces the transition between rotation and counterrotation in swirled granular media
Lisa Lee, John Paul Ryan, Yoav Lahini +2
Granular material in a swirled container exhibits a curious transition as the number of particles is increased: at low densities the particle cluster rotates in the same direction…
