Chlamydomonas swims with two "gears" in a eukaryotic version of run-and-tumble locomotion.

The coordination of eukaryotic flagella is essential for many of the most basic processes of life (motility, sensing, and development), yet its emergence and regulation and its connection to locomotion are poorly understood. Previous studies show that the unicellular alga Chlamydomonas, widely regarded as an ideal system in which to study flagellar biology, swims forward by the synchronous acti...

Emergent run-and-tumble behavior in a simple model of Chlamydomonas with intrinsic noise.

Recent experiments on the green alga Chlamydomonas that swims using synchronized beating of a pair of flagella have revealed that it exhibits a run-and-tumble behavior similar to that of bacteria such as E. coli. Using a simple purely hydrodynamic model that incorporates a stroke cycle and an intrinsic Gaussian white noise, we show that a stochastic run-and-tumble behavior could emerge due to t...

Phase Dependent Forcing and Synchronization in the three-sphere model of Chlamydomonas

The green alga Chlamydomonas swims with synchronized beating of its two flagella, and is experimentally observed to exhibit run-and-tumble behaviour similar to bacteria. Recently we studied a simple hydrodynamic three-sphere model of Chlamydomonas with a phase dependent driving force which can produce run-andtumble behaviour when intrinsic noise is added, due to the non-linear mechanics of the ...

“Rough and tumble” and “Ruin” in Culture of Rumi’s Poetry

     The present study entitled: "Transformation" and "Destruction" in Jalaludin Mohammad Balkhi’s (Rumi) Poetry intends to analyze two of the most common and prominent mystical terms that are "transformation" and “destruction”, in his Masnavi and Divan Kabir, through untying the meanings of these two terms. It also intends to explain the meaning of pieces of verse that are related to these two...

Running and tumbling with E. coli in polymeric solutions

Run-and-tumble motility is widely used by swimming microorganisms including numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Here, we experimentally investigate the run-and-tumble dynamics of the bacterium E. coli in polymeric solutions. We find that even small amounts of polymer in solution can drastically change E. coli dynamics: cells tumble less and their velocity increases, leading to an enh...
