Slime mould tactile sensor
Slime mould P. polycephalum is a single cells visible by unaided eye. The cells shows a wide spectrum of intelligent behaviour. By interpreting the behaviour in terms of computation one can make a slime mould based computing device. The Physarum computers are capable to solve a range of tasks of computational geometry, optimisation and logic. Physarum computers designed so far lack of localised...
متن کاملSlime mould electronic oscillators
We construct electronic oscillator from acellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum. The slime mould oscillator is made of two electrodes connected by a protoplasmic tube of the living slime mould. A protoplasmic tube has an average resistance of 3 MOhm. The tube’s resistance is changing over time due to peristaltic contractile activity of the tube. The resistance of the protoplasmic tube oscil...
متن کاملSlime Mould Memristors
In laboratory experiments we demonstrate that protoplasmic tubes of acellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum show current versus voltage profiles consistent with memristive systems and that the effect is due to the living protoplasm of the mould. This complements previous findings on memristive properties of other living systems (human skin and blood) and contributes to development of self-g...
متن کاملOn Creativity of Slime Mould
Slime mould Physarum polycephalum is large single cell with intriguingly smart behaviour. The slime mould shows outstanding abilities to adapt its protoplasmic network to varying environmental conditions. The slime mould can solve tasks of computational geometry, image processing, logics and arithmetics when data are represented by configurations of attractants and repellents. We attempt to map...
متن کاملSpecific nuclear elimination in polyploid plasmodia of the slime mold Physarum polycephalum.
In growing plasmodia of the myxomycete Physarum polycephalum (G2-phase), three distinct classes of nuclei with a relative DNA content of 1x, 2x, and 4x are observed in the presumed haploid strain CL. The 2x and 4x species comprise up to 35% and 5% of the nuclei. Quantitative cytofluorometric studies of nuclei isolated in either G2- or S-phase or after FUDR treatment (G1 arrest) show that the th...
