Collections of non-Brownian particles suspended in a viscous fluid and subjected to oscillatory
shear at very low Reynolds number have recently been shown to exhibit a remarkable …

The order of the vortex state in La 1.9 Sr 0.1 CuO 4 is probed using muon-spin rotation and
small-angle neutron scattering. A transition from a Bragg glass to a vortex glass is observed, …

Background The development and widespread use of an effective SARS-CoV-2 vaccine
could prevent substantial morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19 and mitigate the …

We propose an efficient numerical scheme, based on the method of lines, for solving the
Landau–de Gennes equations describing the relaxational dynamics of nematic liquid crystals. …

When embryonic stem cells differentiate, the mechanical properties of their nuclei evolve en
route to their terminal state. Measurements of the deformability of cell nuclei in the …

The vortex glass state formed by magnetic flux lines in a type-II superconductor is shown to
possess nontrivial three-body correlations. While such correlations are usually difficult to …

Chromosomes within eukaryotic cell nuclei at interphase are not positioned at random, since
gene-rich chromosomes are predominantly found towards the interior of the cell nucleus …

Cells adhere to substrates through mechanosensitive focal adhesion complexes. Measurements
that probe how cells detach from substrates when they experience an applied force …

Stem cells integrate signals from the microenvironment to generate lineage-specific gene
expression programs upon differentiation. Undifferentiated cell nuclei are easily deformable, …

We model the stable self-organized patterns obtained in the nonequilibrium steady states of
mixtures of molecular motors and microtubules. In experiments [Nédélec et al., Nature (…
